Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of picking a grapefruit is the amount of grapefruits over the amount of total fruit. There are 3 grapefruits, and 6 total pieces of fruit. 3/6 is equal to 1/2, so the probability is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
After calculating for ten minutes, I got 1. B and 2. D
Step 1: Line up the equations so that the variables are lined up vertically.
Step 2: Choose the easiest variable to eliminate and multiply both equations by different numbers so that the coefficients of that variable are the same.
Step 3: Subtract the two equations.
Step 4: Solve the one variable system.
Step 5: Put that value back into either equation to find the other equation.
Step 6: Reread the question and plug your answers back in to check.
She will use more than 1/4 cup of sugar to make 1.5 batches of muffins. If one batch of muffins requires 1/4 cup of sugar, you can think of the amount of sugar needed being 1/4 cup per batch. That being said multiply 1.5 batches by 1/4 cup per batch to find cups of sugar.
(1.5 batches)x((1/4 cups)/(1 batch))=0.375 cups of sugar.
You can also think of it as if one batch takes 1/4 cup of sugar, half of a batch would take 1/8 cup of sugar. Since 1.5 batches is just 1 batch+1/2 batch, you can say the amount of sugar needed is 1/4 cup+1/8 cup which equals 3/8 cup sugar.
I hope this helps you.
