What is the answer? (2 3/8 - 1/4)x1/8=?

1 answer:

7 0

2 3/8 - 1/4 = 2 1/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.

To do this, you first need to do the problem in the (). You have to turn 1/4 with a denominator of eight, so the fraction becomes 2/8. 2 3/8 - 2/8 = 2 1/8. Now we have to turn 2 1/8 into an improper fraction by doing whole number x denominator + numerator. 17/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.

Answer: $\dfrac{15}{64}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Inside radius of figure $r_1=\frac{14}{2}=7\ ft$

Outside radius of figure $r_2=\frac{16}{2}=8\ ft$

Area of outside region is $A_1=\pi (8^2)$

Area of inside region $A_2=\pi (7)^2$

Area of shaded region $A_1-A_2$

Probability that point lies inside the shaded region is

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{A_1-A_2}{A_1}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{\pi (8^2-7^2)}{\pi 8^2}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{64-49}{64}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{15}{64}$
