The ratio 9:7 gives you following statement:

  • Carl will win in 9 cases from 9+7=16;
  • Carl will lose in 7 cases from 16.

Then the probability that Carl will lose is

Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Answer: Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Lou cuts 3 yards from a 9 yard roll of fabric. Then he cuts 4 feet from the roll. How many feet of fabric is left on the roll.
ikadub [295]
16 feet of fabric left on the roll. take 9 yards turn it into feet (times three to get feet) then do the same for 2 1/3. 9 yards becomes 27 feet and 2 1/3 yards becomes 7 feet. add 7 feet plus four. you get positive eleven. Then take 27 feet minus 11, you get 16 feet or 5 1/3 yards of fabric

One liter of paint covers 100 square feet. How many gallons of paint does it take to cover a room whose walls have an area of 80
mezya [45]
1 gallon is 3.78 L
100 sq feet needs 1 L
800 sq feet needs x

100/800 = 1/x
100x = 800
x = 800/100
x = 8 L

If you use the fact that 4 L = 1 gallon then you need 2 gallons of paint. I you use the more accurate 3.78 L then
1 gallon = 3.78 L
x gallon = 8 L

3.78 x = 8*1
x = 8/3.78
x = 2.12 gallons.
 
I guess you could say that 1 gallon and 1 L would do you.
