The total number of fish available in the tank is (18 + 22) = 40. We want to randomly select 2 fish and come up with 2 goldfish. The probability for 1 goldfish to be taken out would be 18/40. Now, after drawing the first fish, the probability to get another goldfish would be 17/39. And the probability to draw 2 goldfish would be the product of both probabilities. P = (18/40)(17/39) = 51/260 Thus, the answer is <span>B.</span>

Three sevenths of a children's choir are boys. If there are 12 boys in the choir, how many children, c, total are in the choir?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Here c represents the total number of children  in choir.

As per the statement:

Total number of boys in choir = 12

It is also given that: Three sevenths of a children's choir are boys.

⇒ Total number of boys = \frac{3}{7} c

or

12 = \frac{3}{7}c

By cross multiply we have;

84 = 3c

Divide both sides by 3 we have;

c = 28

Therefore, the total number of children in choir is 28 children
