Answer:
The required equation is 3y=36 and the tape diagram is shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
We need to write a multiplication equation that has a solution of 12.
3y=36
We know we have to split 36 into three equal groups, so we have to divide by 3 to show this algebraically.
3y÷3=36÷3
y=12
Now check this with the help of tape diagram as shown.
Consider the figure 1.
This represents if 36 had to be split into three groups, how big would each group be?
By the tape diagram we concluded that the value of y is 12.
Answer:
This is the same as writing (n-m)/n
Don't forget about the parenthesis if you go with the second option.
==================================================
Explanation:
The probability that she wins is m/n, where m,n are placeholders for positive whole numbers.
For instance, m = 2 and n = 5 leads to m/n = 2/5. This would mean that out of n = 5 chances, she wins m = 2 times.
The probability of her not winning is 1 - (m/n). We subtract the probability of winning from 1 to get the probability of losing.
We could leave the answer like this, but your teacher says that the answer must be "in the form of a combined single fraction".
Doing a bit of algebra would have these steps
and now the expression is one single fraction.
