let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper, and then check.


\bf \stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{2}}
\\\\[-0.35em]
\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\
\begin{array}{ccll}
miles&hours\\
\cline{1-2}
60&1\\[0.8em]
m&\frac{11}{2}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{~~1~~}{\frac{11}{2}}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{~~\frac{1}{1}~~}{\frac{11}{2}}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{11}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{2}{11}\implies 660=2m\implies \cfrac{660}{2}=m\implies 330=m

The odds against Carl beating his friend in a round of golf are 7:5. Find the probability that carl will beat his friend.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

\frac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

In other words, carl's losing odds are 7 : 5, so his winning odds will be 5 : 7

So if they play (7+5=12) 12 times, carl will win 5 times.

To find probability that carl will beat his friend, we take the probability of Carl winning. Simple!

The probability is  5/ 12
