The answer is A 3.

In order to find this answer, we first have to find the number of games that they lost. To do so, we subtract the wins from the total.

160 - 64 = 96.

Now that we have the number of losses, we can divide wins by losses to get a ratio.

64/96 = 2/3

So for every 2 wins, we get 3 losses.

Answer:

A. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Colorado Rockies played 160 games and won 64.

To find: For every two games they won, how many games did they lose?

Solution: In order to find for every two games they won, how many games did they lose, we first need to find the number of games they lose.

So, we have

total games=160

games won=64

games lose=160-64=96

Now, we need to find the ratio of number of games won to the number of games they lose

=\frac{64}{96}

=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore, the ratio is 2:3.

So, for every 2 games they won, they lose 3 games.

Hence, option A. 3 is correct.

At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

a) Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

Odds are always expressed as ratios after calculating. Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

b) Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.

The probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above has to do with odds and probability.

It is important to note that odds are expressed in the form of ratios while probabilities are expressed as fractions.

a) At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is 3/25. Find the odds in favor of receiving a gift.(I got 3/28)

The formula for calculating odds from probability is Odds = Probability / (1 - Probability).

Probability = 3/25

Odds =(3/25)/(1 - 3/25)

= (3/25)/22/25

= 3/25 ÷ 22/25

= 3/25 × 25/22

= 3/22

Note that odds are always expressed as ratios.

Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

The correct answer is 3:22

b) A child has a box of candies which might have a toy inside. The odds against the box having a toy are 7/2. What is the probability of the box having a toy? I got 7/9.

The formula for calculating probability from odds is P = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Odds = 7/2 or 7:2

We convert the odds to fraction when calculating

Probability = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Probability = (7/2)/ (7/2 + 1)

Probability = (7/2)/9/2

Probability = 7/2 ÷ 9/2

= 7/2 × 2/9

= 7/9

Probability is always expressed as a fraction.

Therefore, the probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.
