Put these numbers in order. Start with the smallest number.

Exclude leap years from the following calculations. (a) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a) 99.73% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

b) 96.71% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

c) 98.08% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

d) 92.33% probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

A non-leap year has 365 days.

(a) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

There are 365-1 = 364 days that are not March 14. So

364/365 = 0.9973

99.73% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

(b) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

There are 12 months, so there are 12 2nds of a month.

So

(365-12)/365 = 0.9671

96.71% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

(c) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

The following months have 31 days: January, March, May, July, August, October, December.

So there are 7 31st days of a month during a year.

Then

(365-7)/365 = 0.9808

98.08% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

(d) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

During a non-leap year, February has 28 days. So

(365-28)/365 = 0.9233

92.33% probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

Juans three math quizzes this week took him 1/3?4/6?and1/5 hour to complete. List all the fraction from least to greatest

Alex

Answer:

$\frac{1}{5}$ , $\frac{1}{3}$ , $\frac{4}{6}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given fractions $\frac{1}{3}$ , $\frac{4}{6}$ , $\frac{1}{5}$ .

We need to list them from least to greatest.

In order to arrange them from least to greatest, we need to find the least common denominator of $\frac{1}{3}$ , $\frac{4}{6}$ , $\frac{1}{5}$ .

We have 3, 6 and 5 in denominators.

Least common multiple of 3, 6 and 5 is = 30, because 30 is least number that can be divided by all three number 3, 6 and 5.

Let us covert each denominator as 30.

Multiplying first fraction $\frac{1}{3}$ by 10 in top and bottom, we get

$\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1\times10}{3\times10}=\frac{10}{30}$

Multiplying first fraction $\frac{4}{6}$ by 5 in top and bottom, we get

$\frac{4}{6} = \frac{4\times5}{6\times5}=\frac{20}{30}$

Multiplying first fraction $\frac{1}{5}$ by 6 in top and bottom, we get

$\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1\times6}{5\times6}=\frac{6}{30}.$

Now, we can check $\frac{10}{30}, \frac{20}{30} \ and \ \frac{6}{30}.$

$\frac{6}{30}$ is the smallest, $\frac{10}{30}$ is greater and $\frac{20}{30}$ is the greatest.

Therefore, we can arrange fractions $\frac{6}{30}, \frac{10}{30} \ and \ \frac{20}{30}.$

Writing original fractions in place of equivalent fractions, we can write

$\frac{1}{5}$ , $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{6}$ .

Therefore, the order the amounts of paint from least to greatest is:

$\frac{1}{5}$ , $\frac{1}{3}$ , $\frac{4}{6}$ .
