105/5=21 and after 21*9 lines up and to check your work than
5*21=105 and 9*21=189 it is not B because the smaller number 105 is in front of the ratio 105:189 and 5:9
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
He read 1/3 of the book on the second day
He didn't finish the book in two days.
<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>
Lets find 3/5 of 5/9
If we said, find 3/5 of x, the answer would be 3/5x.
3/5*x = 3/5x
In the same way, 
He read 1/3 of the book on the second day
Does 5/9 + 1/3 equal to 1?
1/3 = 3/9
5/9 + 3/9 = 8/9
He didn't finish the book in two days.
Hope this helps :)
Have a nice day!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of pairs of socks in a drawer = 10
Number of black pairs of socks = 5
Number of blue pairs of socks = 5
A. If you picked 2 socks [black] and [blue] 3rd pick guarantees you will have one pair of either blue or black
Number of socks you pull out to guarantee that you have a pair of one color = 3 socks
B. If you want to pick 2 good pairs and your 6 picks are worst case, so 7th pick of the socks will give you good pair of two colors.
Number of socks you pull out to have two good pairs = 7 socks
C. If you want to have a pair of black socks your worst case will be you pick all 10 blue socks so another 2 socks must be black.
Number of socks you pull out to have two black socks = 12 socks
