6 blue pencils and 3 red pencils means 9 total pencils. So the probability of pulling out ONE blue pencil would be 6/9 or about 67 percent. TWO blue pencils would be HALF of that. So 6/9 * 1/2 which is 6/18 or 1/3 or about 33 percent.
Answer:
-60p - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the parenthesis then add like terms together.
Step 1: Distribute
6 -60p - 7
Step 2: Combine like terms
-60p - 1
After Sally had given 1/9 of her stamps to Andy, she had 280 stamps (since they now have equal shares). So 280 was 8/9 of what she started with, making the 1/9 she handed over equal to 280/8, that’s 35. And Andy was “under” by the same amount she was “over” an equal share, that’s 35 under matching her 35 over, which is 70 altogether.
By all means use algebra but you may find you can reason a word problem through in words.
Answer:
200
Step-by-step explanation:
25 percent is known to be 1/4 of a number, so if 50 teachers represent 1/4 of all the teachers, that means that in order to get a full number, we must multiple 50 by 4 in order to get all 100% of the teachers.
By doing 50x4, we can conclude that 200 teachers teach at the school (aka 100% of all teachers)
