We have been given that there are 125 people and three door prizes.

In the first part we need to figure out how many ways can three door prizes of $50 each be distributed?

Since there are total 125 people and there are three identical door prices, therefore, we need to use combinations for this part.

Hence, the required number of ways are:

_{3}^{125}\textrm{C}=\frac{125!}{122!3!}=\frac{125*124*123}{1*2*3}=317750

In the next part, we need to figure out how many ways can door prizes of $5,000, $500 and $50 be distributed?

Since we have total 125 people and there are three prices of different values, therefore, the required number of ways can be figured out by using permutations.

_{3}^{125}\textrm{P}=\frac{125!}{122!}=125*124*123=1906500

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1a. 25/50 =x/100                

25*100= 2500/50= 50

A= 50%

1b. 35/40 = x/100

35*100= 3500/40= 87.5

A=87.5%

2a. 15/20= x/100

20*5= 100; 15*5= 75

A=75%

2b. 25/70= x/100

25*100= 2500/70= 35.71

A=35.71

3a. 15/80= x/100

15*100= 1500/80=18.75

A=18.75%

3b. 30/60= x/100

30/60= 1/2;1/2=0.5;0.5= 50%

A=50%

4a. 70/80 =x/100

70*100=7000/80 =87.5

A=87.5

4b.30/60 = 50% ( same as question #3b)
