Find equivalent fractions with common denominator and order least to greatest 1/6 1/3 3/4

1 answer:

5 0

To get the common denominator, we need to get the multiples of each denominator.

multiples of 6 : 6, 12, 18
multiples of 3 : 3, 6, 9, 12
multiples of 4 : 4, 8, 12

The common multiple 12. So, we need to multiply each fraction by the corresponding number that will result to a product of 12 in the denominator. Whatever number is multiplied to the denominator must also be the number multiplied to the numerator.

1/6 * 2/2 = 2/12
1/3 * 4/4 = 4/12
3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12

Since the denominator is already common, we use the numerator to arrange it in order from least to greatest. 2 is lesser than 4 and 4 is less than 9.

So, order from least to greatest ⇒ 1/6 , 1/3, and 3/4

A college-entrance exam is designed so that scores are normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.

Answer:

The probability is 0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average $\mu$ is:

$\mu=500$

The standard deviation $\sigma$ is:

$\sigma=100$

The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We seek to find

$P(x800)$

For P(x>800) The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{800-500}{100}$

$Z=3$

The score of Z = 3 means that 800 is 3 standard deviations from the mean. Then by the rule of the 8 parts of the normal curve, the area that satisfies the conficion of 3 deviations from the mean has percentage of 0.15%

$P(x>800)=0.15\%$

For P(x<200) The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{200-500}{100}$

$Z=-3$

The score of Z = -3 means that 200 is 3 standard deviations from the mean. Then by the rule of the 8 parts of the normal curve, the area that satisfies the conficion of 3 deviations from the mean has percentage of 0.15%

$P(x$
