Simply the expression. - 3/6 - 5/7

- 3/6 - 5/7

We have to get both fractions to have the same denominator, so we multiply fraction 1 by 7/7 and fraction 2 by 6/6

So now, we have -21/42 - 30/42

Since we have the same denominator (the bottom number), all we have to do is look at the numerators, (top numbers) and add them.

So, we do -21 - 30, which equals -51.

So, our answer is -51 / 42

It is an improper fraction, so we turn it into a mixed number.

So, our new answer is -1 9/42

However, that can be simplified.

Now, it is -1 3/14

It is pronounced as "negative one and three fourteenths."

If the probability of A given B is 0.8 and the probability of A is 0.12 what is the probability of B
horsena [70]

We can't tell from the information given. What we do know is

P(A ∩ B) = P(A|B) P(B)

We're given the conditional probability but not the probability of the conjunction.

If we were told P(A|B)=0.8 and P(A ∩ B)=0.12 we could conclude

P(B)=P(A ∩ B)/P(A|B) = 0.12/0.8 = 0.15

but that wasn't the problem asked.
