The whole bill is $31.99 that is 100%. You can use mental math to determine exatcly 15% from $31.99:

1. 15%=10%+5%

2. To find 10% from $31.99 you should simply divide $31.99 by ten. Thus, 10% from $31.99 is $3.199.

3. 5% is half of 10%, then 5% from $31.99 is $3.199:2=$1.5995.

4. 15% from $31.99 is $3.199+$1.5995=$4.7985≈$4.80.

Answer: correct choice is B.

A drug trial is testing the effectiveness of two drugs. If 50 patients are given Drug A, 20 patients are given Drug B, and 100 p
Vsevolod [243]
So, to find the answer you'd first add up how many patients you have:
20+50+100 = 170.
In a fraction your total would go on the bottom. Then you'd take how many patients are taking a real drug, which is represented by 20+50 = 70. This number would go on top.

So, the probability of a patient NOT getting a placebo is 70/170. Simplified would be 7/17. 

The answer is D. 7/17.
