A number tripled and 6 is 24
To Find:
The Number = ?
Solution:
Let the number be x
The question states that the number is tripled. so lets multiply the number by 3, We get
3x
Then
3x + 6 = 24
On solving the equation we get
3x = 24 -6
3x = 18
x = 6
1/16
P(get an order) = 1/4
thus
P(getting both orders) = 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16
