Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Depending on what type of fraction you're trying to simplify there are different ways.

One subtraction example would be:

6-3/7-4 you minus the numerator and denominator to get 3/3 since we have 3 on both top and bottom our simplified answer would be 1

Answer:

  Divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:

  38/57 = (2·19)/(3·19)

Dividing numerator and denominator by the factor 19 that is common to both, we have the simplest form:

  38/57 = 2/3

___

The process is aided immensely by you having mastery of your multiplication tables through at least 12×12, and by having a good feeling for the factorization of all numbers less than 100.

Some calculators work well with fractions, so can simplify them for you. If you don't have either of the above, then you need to have a good understanding of how to find the greatest common divisor of two numbers. Euclid's algorithm is a useful tool for this.

Which of these values cannot represent the probability of an event happening?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The last option, 1.2, cannot represent the probability of an event happening since it is more than 100% (120%). And event cannot have a higher probability of happening than "happening".

A. 0.33 is a valid response, since it represents 33%.

B. 56% is also a valid response.

C. 7/8 is also a valid response since it represents 0,875 or 87,5%.

Hope it helped,

There are many regulations for catching lobsters off the coast of New England including required permits, allowable gear, and si
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Probability that the sample mean carapace length is more than 4.25 inches = 0.9993

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - There are many regulations for catching lobsters off the coast

             of New England including required permits, allowable gear, and

             size prohibitions. The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries

             requires a minimum carapace length measured from a rear eye

             socket to the center line of the body shell. For a particular local

             municipality, any lobster measuring less than 3.37 inches must

             be returned to the ocean. The mean carapace length of the  

             lobsters is 4.01 inches with a standard deviation of 2.13 inches.

             A random sample of 60 lobsters is obtained.

To find - What is the probability that the sample mean carapace length

              is more than 4.25 inches?

Proof -

Given that, μ = 4.01, σ = 2.13 , n = 60

Now,

μₓ⁻ = σ / √n

    = \frac{2.13}{\sqrt{60} }

    = \frac{2.13}{7.746} = 0.275

⇒μₓ⁻ = 0.275

Now,

P(X⁻ > 3.37) = 1 - P( X⁻ <  3.37)

                   = 1 - P(z <  \frac{3.37 - 4.25}{0.275} )

                   = 1 - P( z < -3.2 )

                   = 1 - 0.0007

                   = 0.9993

⇒P(X⁻ > 3.37) = 0.9993

∴ we get

Probability that the sample mean carapace length is more than 4.25 inches = 0.9993

Find the measures of two complementary angles if the difference in the measures of the two angles is 14
ira [324]
Complementary angles are angles that measure up to 90 degrees.

To find the measures of the two angles, divide 90 by two to say two angles of 45 degrees. Now divide 14 by 2, which you get 7 with. Now add 7 to 45 and subtract it from 45 as well, to get 52 and 38.

The measures of the angles are 52 degrees and 38 degrees.
