You could say 84/2, 126/3, or even 168/4
The diameter of the pool cover in one hundred feet
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
We can list out each of the numbers' prime factors first before deciding their greatest common factor.
16: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
48: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
As you can see the bolded parts, these are the common factors of the two numbers. To find the greatest common factors, we just have to multiply all their common factors together.
Greatest common factor of 16 & 48: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
Answer:
i) Probability that both candidates employed are women = 5/14
ii) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = 5/8
iii) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the probability that a man is employed be P(M) = 3/8
Probability that a woman is employed P(W) = 5/8
a) Probability that both candidates employed are women = (5/8) × (4/7) = 5/14
b) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = (probability that first candidate is a man and second candidate is a woman) + (probability that first candidate is a woman & second candidate is a woman)
= (3/8)(5/7) + (5/8)(4/7) = (15/56) + (20/56) = 35/56 = 5/8
c) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman
Given that the second candidate was a women, means that the first candidate-women was selected among other four women.
Probability = (4/8)/(5/8) = 4/5
