If you roll six sided dice what are the odds of rolling doubles

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 16.7%

There are 6 ways we can roll doubles out of a possible 36 rolls (6 x 6), for a probability of 6/36, or 1/6, on any roll of two fair dice. So you have a 16.7% probability of rolling doubles with 2 fair six-sided dice.

Second Answer : 6/36

Out of the 6^2 = 36 outcomes, there is only 6 that are doubles (double 1,double 2,… double 6). Therefore the probability is 6/36 i 1/6.

4. A loan made on March 12 is due September 10 of the following year. Find the exact time for the loan in a non-leap year and a

saul85 [17]

Answer:

182 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Date on which loan is made = March 12

Due date of the loan = September 10

Now,

The months in between March and September and the number of days in the particular months are

Month Number of days

April 30

May 31

June 30

July 31

August 31

------------------------------------------

Total number of days = 153

also,

Number of days left in March after 12 are (31 - 12 ) = 19 days

and,

Number of days in September before the due date = 10 days

Hence, the total time for loan = 19 + 153 + 10 = 182 days

since the included months does not have the month of February. Therefore,

the time for both leap year and non-leap year will remain same.

Which expression has a positive quotient?

svp [43]

Answer:

Only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve to find out Which expression has a positive quotient.

We know the division rule: $\frac{-a}{-b}=\frac{a}{b}$ and $\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{-a}{b}$

We will use these rules

1) Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds

$=\frac{-\frac{3}{4} }{-\frac{2}{3} }\\=-\frac{3}{4}\times -\frac{3}{2}\\=\frac{9}{8}$

The quotient is positive.

2) Negative StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction divided by 3 and one-fifth

$\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{3\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{\frac{16}{5} }\\=-\frac{1}{18} \times \frac{5}{16}\\=-\frac{5}{288}$

The quotient is negative.

3) 2 and StartFraction 2 over 7 EndFraction divided by negative one-fifth

$\frac{2\frac{2}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\= \frac{\frac{16}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{16}{7} \times -5\\=-\frac{80}{7}$

The quotient is negative.

4) Negative 6 divided by Five-thirds

$\frac{-6}{\frac{5}{3} }\\=-6 \times \frac{3}{5}\\=-\frac{18}{5}$

The quotient is negative.

So, only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

In a family, each brother has as many sisters as brothers, but each sister has twice as many brothers as she has sisters. How ma

daser333 [38]

Answer:

4 brothers and 3 sisters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of brothers and y be the number of sisters in the family.

1. Each brother has x-1 brothers and y sisters. If each brother has as many sisters as brothers, then

$x-1=y.$

2. Each sister has y-1 sisters and x brothers. If each sister has twice as many brothers as she has sisters, then

$2(y-1)=x.$

3. Solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x-1=y\\ \\2(y-1)=x\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow 2(y-1)-1=y,\\ \\2y-2-1=y,\\ \\2y-y=2+1,\\ \\y=3.$

Then

$x=y+1=3+1=4.$
