First there was a 3/6 or 50% chance of getting an almond cookie. (3 out of 6 cookies are almond) then, it became a 2/5 or 40% chance of getting an almond cookie. (2 out of 5 cookies are almond) multiple 3/6 by 2/5 and you get 6/30 which can be simplified to 1/5.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Total pencils = 30
Probability of picking a red = 1/6
Red pencils in the box = probability × total pencils
= 1/6 × 30
= 5 red pencils
So, there are 5 red pencils in the box.

Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
1.2/3 =0.4
4/5 can be written as 0.8
So, 1.8/0.8 = 2.25.
However, 1.8/4/5 is the same as:
1.8/1 ÷ 4/5
Keep Change Flip
1.8/1 x 5/4 = 9/4
(1.8 x 5=9 & 1 x4 =4)
9/4 =2.25
