The probability that the first horse wins is 2/7. The probability that the second horse wins is 3/10. Since the events that the first horse wins and the second horse wins are shared exclusive, the probability that either the first horse or the second horse will win is :
2/7 + 3/10= 41/70
Hope this is correct.
-1/2(-4/5)
Multiply the numerators by each other and do the same for the denominators.
That is:
-1(-4)=4
And 2*5=10
Now we have 4/10
Divide the numerator and the denominator by 2 to get 2/5 which is the simplest form.
Hope this helped.
