Answer:

Cricket match toss and playing cards

Step-by-step explanation:

Example 1: Cricket match toss

<em>There are two teams in a cricket match. Each team's captain comes forward for the toss. There are 2 sides of the coin; head an tail. Each captain has an equal chance of either getting a head or a tail.</em>

Total number = 2

Chances of head/tail = 1

Therefore the probability for each captain of either getting a head or a tail is 1/2.

Example 2: Playing cards

<em>A deck of cards has 52 cards. There are total 26 black cards and 26 red cards out of which there are 13 clubs, 13 spades, 13 hearts and 13 diamonds. Each category has a King, Queen, Jack, Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 card.</em>

Total number of cards: 52

Total number of 10 of spades: 1

The probability of getting a 10 of spades will be 1/52.

Mary went up the Old Tower taking 3 steps per second. Then she carefully came down from the tower taking 2 steps per second. It
Inessa [10]

Answer:

old town has 150 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of steps in the old tower be m

Mathematically, time = distance/speed

In this case, the distance is the number of steps while the speed is the rate of climbing or descending

For climbing, time spent = m/3

For descending time spent = m/2

Since it took her 25 longer when descending;

This means that;

m/2 - m/3 = 25

(3m-2m)/6 = 25

m/6 = 25

m = 6 * 25

m = 150 steps
