You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

We have shown methods using multiplication, division, subtraction, addition. Take your pick.
Using a binomial distribution considering there's a 30% chance it will rain on any of the three days:
<span>The probability of it raining on 0 days is (1)(0.7)(0.7)(0.7) = 34.3%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 1 day is (3)(0.3)(0.7)(0.7) = 44.1%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 2 days is (3)(0.3)(0.3)(0.7) = 18.9%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 3 days is (1)(0.3)(0.3)(0.3) = 2.7%. </span>
<span>There's a 65.7% chance that it will rain at least once over the three-day period.</span>
Answer:
She needs 50 ft² of wood to cover the table
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to know the formula for area of a trapezoid, which is
A = (B1 + B2)h/s (add the bases together, multiply by the height, then divide
by 2)
We are given B1 = 12, B2 = 8, and h = 5, so plug them in and simplify
A = (12 + 8)(5)/2
A = (20)(5)/2
A = 100/2
A = 50 ft²
