Answer:

<em>19800 seconds, or 330 minutes, or 5 hours + 30 minutes</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Number Permutations</u>

We know the phone number has 7 digits, 4 of which are known by Mark. This leaves him 3 digits to guess with. We also know the last one is not zero. The number can be represented as

XXY

Where X can be any digit from 0 to 9 and Y can be any digit from 1 to 9. The first two can be combined in 10x10 ways, and the last one can be of 9 ways, this gives us 10x10x9 = 900 possible permutations.

If each possible number takes him 22 seconds, every possibility will need

22x900=19800 seconds, or 330 minutes, or 5 hours + 30 minutes

What is the fraction for 45 divided by 20 please show work
lianna [129]

Answer:

9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The divide symbol is also the line that separates the numerator and the denominator, so 45÷20 can also be written as 45/20.

We can see that both 45 and 20 are divisible by 5, so we can simplify the fraction down to 9x5/4x5, and then we cancel out the 5s and are left with 9/4
