Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

624 students

Since they’re only 3 parts more girls then boys and the number equals 144, you just have to divide 144 by 3. You’ll get 48

Multiply 5 and 8 by 48 to get 240 and 384 and add to get 624 which is the answer

A box contains10 pens, 5 of the pens are red, 4 are balck and 1 are bluem What is the probability of pulling out a black pen fir
antiseptic1488 [7]
Pulling out a black pen first will grant you a 40% chance of that occurring, then when you put it back the probability of you pulling out a red pen would be 50% so in decimal form these two values would be .40 and .50 multiply these two together you should get .20 or a 20% chance. Also a written fraction would be 1/5, all of which are valid answers.
