28 to 42 means 28/42
We now reduce 28/42 to lowest terms.
28 ÷ 7 = 4
42 ÷ 7 = 6
We now have 4/6.
We now reduce 4/6.
4 ÷ 2 = 2
6 ÷ 2 = 3
Final answer: 2/3
THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;
The probability of pulling a green marble out of a bag of colored marbles is 2:5. If you were to pull colored marbles out of the bag one at a time, and putting the marble back each time for 600 tries, approximately how many time would you select a green marble?? ( explanation too) 7th grade Math
Answer:
We would approximately pick a green marble 240 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Given from the question the probability of pulling a green marble out of a bag of colored marbles is 2:5
Let us denote the number of trials as X
Now the approximately number of times a green marble can be selected would be
=2/5 times
From the question we are given 600 trials
which implies our x=600
Therefore, the number of times we would pick a green marble is:
2/5 × 600 times
≈ 240 times
Therefore, we would approximately pick a green marble 240 times
Parallel never cross
perpendicular is a 90 degree angle
its neither if its not 90 degree or never crossing
