The answer is D.

In the expression, the fraction must be larger than 1/4, yet smaller than 7/8.

It can't be A because 1/5 is smaller than 1/4. See below.

1/5 = 4/20

1/4 = 5/20

It also can't be B because 8/9 is larger than 7/8. See below.

8/9 = 64/72

7/8 = 63/72

Lastly, the answer cannot be C because 2/10 is smaller than 1/4.

1/4 = 5/20

2/10 = 4/20

Answer D works because:

10/20 = 2/4 > 1/4

10/20 = 80/160 < 140/160

Here, you need to find a number which is greater than 1/4 and smaller than 7/8.

Now, here we can see 1/5 and 2/10 are equivalent which is smaller than 1/4 [ same numerator and bigger denominator ]

Now, 8/9 is too big among the number, so it is rejected.

The answer would be 10/20 which is equal to 0.5 and lies between them

1/4 < 10/20 < 7/8

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

Hi, I'm often really slow at learning math and my condition makes it harder, can someone help me?

The answer: 0, 4/5 and 5


Explanation: first, we factor out 2x and get: 2x(5x^2-29x+20)=0

In order for this equation to be equal to zero, either 2x must equal to zero or (5x^2-29x+20) must equal to zero

Having said that, if:
2x = 0
X=0

If:
(5x^2-29x+20) = 0
X=4/6, x=5

The work standards department at corporate headquarters recently conducted a study and found that 20% of the mufflers were not installed in 30 minutes or less.

Therefore, π=0.20

The Maumee branch installed 50 mufflers last month.

Thus, n=50

Mean of the distribution: μ=nπ

Substitute the respective values in the above formula.

μ=(50)(0.20)

μ=10

Hence, the installations at the Maumee branch would you expect to take more than 30 minutes is 10.
