What you’ll have to do is find the probability of the oranges and the tangerines. There is a total is 15 fruit. 12 of those are not grapefruit. You’ll then have to find the percentage of 12/15.


12 is divided by 15, then multiplied by 100. 

12 divided by 15 = 0.08

0.08 x 100 = 80

There is an 80% chance that a grapefruit will not be picked.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the current ages:

father= 32 yrs old

son=5 yrs old

-------

4(5+x) = 32+x

20+4x = 32+x

4x-x = 32–20

3x =12

x = 12/3

x = 4 years

------------------------------------

after the 4 years later the farther age will be 36 ( 32+4 = 36)

the son will be 9 ( 5+4= 9 years)

the x presents how the father will be after 4 times the age of the son
