Integers are whole numbers.

mixed number are whole numbers plus fractions...that when simplified, become improper fractions
2 1/2 = 5/2....this is not an integer or a whole number
3 1/4 = 13/4....same here...not an integer or a whole number
4 1/3 = 13/3...not an integer or a whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with theoretical probability. This means that our probability of said outcome is

$\frac{x}{y}$

where x is the outcome we want, and y is the total number of outcomes possible.

28. There is 3 triangles out of 6 polygons so the probability is 1/2.

29.There is 1 Pentagon so the probability is 1/6.

30. This is a complement to question 28. A complement is the inverse of the problem. A complement and its original add to 1 so the probability of both getting a triangle is 1/2.

31. There is 4 non quadraletrial so the probability is 2/3.

32. There is 3 figures that has more sides than three so 1/2 is the probability.

33.There is only multi right angles figures so 1/2 is the probability.

34. There is 30 days in April so the probability it's the 29th is

$\frac{1}{30}$
