The experimental probability that only 2 of 4 children in a family are boys is <u>50%</u>.
<h3>What is experimental probability?</h3>
Experimental probability refers to the chance of an expected success being achieved in a series of experiments conducted.
Experimental probability is the number of times that the expected success occurs as a fraction of the total number of times the experiment was conducted.
Like all probabilities, the experimental probability is based on the likelihood that what the experimenter expects is achieved.
Expected number of boys = 2
The number of children in the family = 4
Experimental probability = 50% (2/4 x 100)
Thus, we can conclude, based on the experimental probability, that <u>50%</u> (or 2) of the 4 children in the family are boys.

The amount of sugar he will use is 5.22 cups of sugar, and the number of boxes needed to pack the muffins is 13.71 boxes.
<h3>
How do we solve a word problem?</h3>
This word problem question can be solved as follows:
Amount of sugar he will use = 1 1/7 * 4 4/7 = 1.142857142857143 * 4.0.571428571428571 = 5.22 cups of sugar
Number of boxes needed to pack the muffins for the meeting = 4 4/7 * 3 = 4.0.571428571428571 * 3 = 13.71 boxes

You can use the formula for conditional probability as Puzzling did. However in this problem it is easier just to restrict yourself and enumerate the cases that are left.
<span>There are 4 jacks. One of them is a heart. So the probability is 1/4. </span>
<span>If you want to look at what the formula for conditional probability does, it adjusts your probability by restricting the "universe". </span>
<span>P(heart and jack)/P(jack) </span>
<span>= (1/52)/(4/52) = 1/4</span>
Answer:
x = 33/5
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3/5 = n.......n = 6
so we sub
x - 3/5 = 6......add 3/5 to both sides
x = 6 + 3/5...convert using common denominator of 5
x = 30/5 + 3/5
x = 33/5 <===
check...
x - 3/5 = 6
33/5 - 3/5 = 6
30/5 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)...so it checks out
