Answer:

There is a 0.36% Chance of 1 or fewer in every 24 matches being flawed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we need to know what 1/10 of 5 is. It is 0.5.

You then need to multiply 24 by 1.5 to get 36. We then need to  divide that by 100 to get a percentage and we end up with 0.36%

Here is an explanation of how to get percentages: https://www.mathsisfun.com/converting-fractions-percents.html

Scarlett is throwing a end of the year party for 2013
galben [10]

Answer:

7.5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 7.5 ponds because if each slider has 2 oz. then we can find the total number of oz. needed by multiplying by 60. This gets 120 oz that Scarlett needs in total. Since there are 16oz in a pound we divide 120 by 16 to find the number of pounds needed.
