Complete question:

A bucket of candy contains 24 Jolly Ranchers, 18 Hershey Kisses, 12 packs of Smarties, and some Starburst. The probability of reaching in and pulling out a pack of Smarties is 1/6.How many Starburst are in the bucket?

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the following :

Number of jolly ranchers = 24

Number of Hershey kisses = 18

Number of smarties = 12

Number of Starburst = s

Probability of pulling out a smarties ; P(smarties) = 1/6

Probability = required outcomes / total possible outcomes

Required outcome = 12

Total possible outcomes = (24 + 18 + 12 + s) = 54 + s

P(smarties) = 12 / (54 + s)

1/6 = 12 / 54 + s

1 × (54 + s) = 12 × 6

54 + s = 72

s = 72 - 54

s = 18

Hence number of smarties = 18

Challenge Yossi used to have a square garage with 246 ft of floor space. recently built an addition to it. The garage is still a
irina [24]

Considering the perimeter of a square, it is found that:

  • The length of one side of the garage​ originally was of 61.5 ft.
  • The length of one side of the garage​ now is of 92.25 ft.
  • The percent increase in the length of one​ side was of 50%.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a square?</h3>

The perimeter of a square of side length s is given by four times the length, that is:

P = 4s.

Before the change, the perimeter was of 246 ft, hence:

4s = 246

s = 246/4

s = 61.5.

The length of one side of the garage​ originally was of 61.5 ft.

After that, the perimeter increased by 50%, hence:

P = 246 x 1.5 = 369.

4s = 369

s = 369/4

s = 92.25.

The length of one side of the garage​ now is of 92.25 ft.

The percent increase is the increase divided by the initial value, hence:

(92.25 - 61.5)/61.5 = 50%.

The percent increase in the length of one​ side was of 50%.
