There are eight boxes. Each box holds one sweater. There are 3 blue, 2 brown, 1 green, and 2 red sweaters. What is the probabili
2 answers:
3 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 8, which is the amount of sweaters.
The probability of a brown sweater is 2 / 8 = 0.25
And the probability of a green sweater is 1 / 8 = 0.125.
Multiply the two probabilities together to get the probability of choosing brown then green:
0.25 * 0.125 = 0.03125.
To convert a decimal to fraction, you multiply the numerator and denominator, or in this case
Which can be simplified to:
Hope this helps.

Given the table showing the distance Randy drove on one day of her vacation as follows:
![\begin{tabular} {|c|c|c|c|c|c|} Time (h)&1&2&3&4&5\\[1ex] Distance (mi)&55&110&165&220&275 \end{tabular}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Btabular%7D%0A%7B%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7C%7D%0ATime%20%28h%29%261%262%263%264%265%5C%5C%5B1ex%5D%0ADistance%20%28mi%29%2655%26110%26165%26220%26275%0A%5Cend%7Btabular%7D)
The rate at which she travels is given by
If Randy has driven for one more hour at the same rate, the number of hours she must have droven is 6 hrs and the total distance is given by
distance = 55 x 6 = 330 miles.
