The parenthesis denote multiplication. Also, a negative times a positive will always be a negative and visa-versa.

-28(16) = -448

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to read this question would go: What is 72% of 50 because that will get you the number of correct solutions. When reading a statement like that, the word "of" means to multiply. However, before we multiply those two values we have to convert the value "72" into percent form. To do that you just divide it by 100 to get 0.72. Then following the statement, you would do 0.72*50 to get your final value of 36 correct questions

A student needs to select 3 books from 3 different mathematics, 3 different physics and 1 history books. What is the probability

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Probability that one of them is mathematics and other two are either physics or history books = 0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A student needs to select 3 books from 3 different mathematics, 3 different physics and 1 history books.

To find - What is the probability one of them is mathematics and other two are either physics or history books ?

Solution -

Given that,

A student needs to select 3 books from 3 different mathematics, 3 different physics and 1 history books.

So,

Total number of books = 3 + 3 + 1 = 7

The student has to select 3 books

So, Total number of ways = $^{7} C_{3}$ = 35

So,

Probability that one of them is mathematics and other two are either physics or history books is -

= $\frac{^{3} C_{1}. ^{4} C_{2} }{^{7} C_{3}}$

= $\frac{(3)(6)}{35}$

= $\frac{18}{35}$

= 0.51

⇒Probability that one of them is mathematics and other two are either physics or history books = 0.51

Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. How many total kilograms of candy did he buy?

nignag [31]

Answer:

1.26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.

First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=14\times 90$
