1 answer:
Answer: 14 1/8
Step-by-step explanation: To add mixed numbers, first add the fractions. In this case, we have two fractions and
and these fractions have unlike denominators. We need to find a common denominator for both of these fractions to be able to add.
<u>Least Common Denominator:</u>
=
=
12 4/8 + 1 5/8 = 13 9/8
Notice that 9/8 is an improper fraction so we can change it to a mixed number.
9/8 = 1 1/8
13 + 1 and 1/8 = 14 1/8

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a 0.3 = 30% experimental probability that Christine will randomly choose a page that is divisible by 3.
<h3>What is a probability?</h3>A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.
In an experimental probability, these number of outcomes are taken from previous trials.
In this problem:
- The experiment was made 20 times.
- Of those, in 6 experiments(81, 105, 171, 159, 297, 387) she choose a page that was divisible by 3.
Then:
0.3 = 30% experimental probability that Christine will randomly choose a page that is divisible by 3.
