I think you might have made a mistake writing your question, here are two possible answers, find out which one you need:
$0.05= \frac{5}{100} = \frac{1}{20}$
$0.5= \frac{50}{100} = \frac{1}{2}$

The side of each of the equilateral triangles in the figure is twice the side of the central regular hexagon. What fraction of t

lana [24]

Answer:

The fraction is 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of an equilateral triangle, using the law of sines is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}x^{2}sin(60^o)$

$A=\frac{1}{2}x^{2}(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$

$A=x^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}$

where

x is the length side of the triangle

In this problem

Let

b ----> the length side of the regular hexagon

2b ---> the length side of the equilateral triangle

step 1

Find the area of the six triangles

Multiply the area of one triangle by 6

$A=6[x^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}]$

$A=3x^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

we have

$x=2b\ units$

substitute

$A=3(2b)^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\A=6b^{2}\sqrt{3}\ units^2$

step 2

Find the area of the regular hexagon

Remember that, a regular hexagon can be divided into 6 equilateral triangles

The area of the regular hexagon is the same that the area of 6 equilateral triangles

$A=3x^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

we have

$x=b\ in$

substitute

$A=3(b)^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

step 3

To find out what fraction of the total area of the six triangles is the area of the hexagon, divide the area of the hexagon by the total area of the six triangles

$3(b)^{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}:6b^{2}\sqrt{3}=\frac{3}{2} :6=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}$

Rajans school is having a raffle. The school sold raffle tickets with 3-digits. Each digit is either 1,2,or 3. The school also s

belka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the school sold raffle tickets, and each ticket has a digit either 1, 2, or 3. The school also sold 2 tickets with the number 000.

Therefore we have the following raffle tickets:

123

132

213

231

312

321

000

From the given information, we can deduce that the school sold 8 tickets and only one ticket can contain the number arrangement of 123, but 000 appeared twice.

Probability of 123 to be picked=

1/8 => 0.125

Probability of 000 to be picked=

2/8 => 0.25

Since the probability of 000 to be picked is greater than 123, a ticket number of 000 is more likely to be picked
