0.17 as a fraction would be 17/100
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x=3
If there are no options to choose from I’d say 25 but if there are options please post them
Since 5 winning numbers are draw and there are exactly 2 winning numbers, the other 3 numbers chosen have to be incorrect.
The 2 numbers picked right, there are 5C2=10 different possibilities.
The other 3 numbers are just picked from the rest of the 32 numbers. Getting there are 32C3=4960 different possibilities.
For each set of 2 correct winning numbers, you could have the 4960 different losing numbers to match up to make a unique set. This meant that there are 4690*10=46900 different total possibilities.
Now the total different outcomes of how you can choose the numbers are 37C5=435897 outcomes.
Now the way to find probabilities is want/total
The want is 46900 and the total is 435897
Doing the division you get the number rounded to the nearest thousandths as 0.107 or in percent form as
10.759% chance of picking exactly 2 winning numbers.
This seems like a competition problem of some sort therefore I assume that you already know what combinations in form nCk and permutation in form nPk means.
<em>EXPLANATION:</em>
Classification of numbers according to the Venn diagram:
<em>Rational numbers:</em>
These numbers are represented by a fraction a / b, where a and b are integers and also b is different from zero.
<em>Whole numbers</em><em>:</em>
An integer is a natural number that can be positive or negative.
<em>Natural numbers:</em>
Natural numbers are those that start at zero to infinity are clearly positive.
<em>Rational numbers:</em>
When taking the square root of 8, 36 and 4 the result is an exact value that is why they are considered as rational numbers.
<em>Irrational Numbers:</em>
When the root of a number is not exact but is expressed as an infinite decimal as in the case of the square root of 140 which is 11.83215956619; this is an irrational number, also this result cannot be expressed as a fraction.
