we are given

\frac{1}{6} m=\frac{5}{8}

Since, we have to solve for m

so, we will try to isolate m on anyone side

so, firstly , we will get rid of 1/6

so, we can multiply both sides by 6

6*\frac{1}{6} m=6*\frac{5}{8}

m=6*\frac{5}{8}

now, we can simplify right side

m=3*\frac{5}{4}

now, we can multiply them

and we get

m=\frac{15}{4}...........Answer

The objective is to isolate m. To get rid of the fraction on the left side, multiply but its reciprocal (6). Do this to both sides so the equation remains true.

1/6m = 5/8

1/6m * 6 = 5/8 * 6

m = 5 * 6 / 8

m = 30 / 8

m = 15 / 4

Answer:

m = \frac{15}{4}

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Pr = 0.4286

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

U \to\\ Undergraduates

G \to Graduates

So, we have:

U = 3; G =5 -- Total students

r = 4 --- students to select

Required

P(U =2)

From the question, we understand that 2 undergraduates are to be selected; This means that 2 graduates are to be selected.

First, we calculate the total possible selection (using combination)

^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}

So, we have:

Total = ^{U + G}C_r

Total = ^{3 + 5}C_4

Total = ^8C_4

Total = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!4!}

Total = \frac{8!}{4!4!}

Using a calculator, we have:

Total = 70

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 3 undergraduates is:

U = ^3C_2

U = \frac{3!}{(3-2)!2!}

U = \frac{3!}{1!2!}

U = 3

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 5 graduates is:

G = ^5C_2

G = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!2!}

G = \frac{5!}{3!2!}

G =10

So, the probability is:

Pr = \frac{G * U}{Total}

Pr = \frac{10*3}{70}

Pr = \frac{30}{70}

Pr = 0.4286
