Answer:
2/3, or 66.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 options for the first digit (3 or 4).
After the first digit is selected, it cannot be repeated, so there are 2 options left for the second digit.
After the first two digits are selected, there is only 1 option for the third digit.
So there are 4 permutations greater than 300.
The total number of permutations is 3! = 6.
So the probability is 4/6 = 2/3.
Let:
x = Pounds of walnuts in the mix.
Each pound of walnuts costs $0.80. thus x pounds of walnuts cost 0.8x dollars.
Each pound of cashews costs $1.25 and the mix will contain 8 pounds of cashews, so the cost is 8*$1.25 = $10
The total cost of the mix is, therefore: 0.8x + 10 dollars.
We are also given the pound of mix costs $1.00 and we have a total of 8 + x pounds, so the total cost of the mix is 1*(8 + x) dollars.
Equating both costs:
0.8x + 10 = 1*(8 + x)
Operating:
0.8x + 10 = 8 + x
Subtracting x and 10:
0.8x - x = 8 - 10
Simplifying:
-0.2x = -2
Dividing by -0.2:
x = -2/(-0.2)
x = 10
Answer: 10 pounds
Answer:
4/5 ÷3/5
4/5×5/3(any time one is dividing a fraction, the dominator would go up while the numerator would come down).
=4/3
The answer should be A, if he marked it up 70% just multiply 66 by 1.7 for your answer.
