I think that this is a combination problem. From the given, the 8 students are taken 3 at a time. This can be solved through using the formula of combination which is C(n,r) = n!/(n-r)!r!. In this case, n is 8 while r is 3. Hence, upon substitution of the values, we have

C(8,3) = 8!/(8-3)!3!
C(8,3) = 56

There are 56 3-person teams that can be formed from the 8 students.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

7/8 > 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 7/8

We can compare this as follows.

Lets say both are equal.

Cross multiplying these we get 40=42

We get 40<42. In fraction we get

In case if you want to convert this to decimal, we get;

5/6 = 0.833 and 7/8 = 0.875

We get 5/6<7/8

B) 4/5

Similarly we get 4/5 = 0.8 and 5/6 = 0.833

Here 4/5<5/6

C) 3/4

we get 3/4 = 0.75 and 5/6 = 0.833

3/4<5/6

D) 2/3

we get 2/3 = 0.66 and 5/6 = 0.833

2/3<5/6
