The one on the left is b and the one on the right is -1.
Answer:
1/6 chance
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is (2)(n-4) = n-1/4
Mult both sides by 4:
8n - 32 = 4n -1, or 4n = 31, or n=31/4.
If this is not what you expected, please ensure that you have copied down the original problem correctly. What do you mean by "1/4 less?"
Let's try (2)(n-4) = 1n-(1/4)n = (3/4)n. Then,
2n-8 = (3/4)n, or (5/4)n = 8. Mult. both sides by (4/5), we get:
n = (5/4)(8) = 10. Is that what you were hoping for?
If you treat multiplication as repeated a<span>ddition, then y</span>es, Juan is correct. Only equal groups can be multiplied.
