Answer:

68% or \frac{36}{53}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of Geraldo selecting a comic that isn't a DC title, we have to subtract the amount of comics that are DC titles from the total amount of comics and then divide that number by the total amount of comics.

53 - 17 = 36

36/53 = 0.679

Geraldo has a 68% chance of choosing a comic that isn't a DC title.

Janelle has a 12 ounce can of soft drink. She drink 3/5 of the soft drink. How many ounces of soft drink are left in tbe can?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:  4.8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 12 ounces. If she drinks 3/5 of 12 you multiply 3/5 by 12.

3/5 * 12 would be equal to 3/5 * 12/1 which is 36/5. You have found how much she has drank. 36/5 is also equal to 7.2 ounces. Subtract 7.2 form 12 and you get 4.8 ounces.

Hope this helped!

Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. How many total kilograms of candy did he buy?
nignag [31]

Answer:

1.26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.

First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:

\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=14\times 90

\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=1260

We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert 1260 grams into kg, we will divide 1260 by 1000 as:

\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=\frac{1260}{1000}

\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=1.26

Therefore, Mr. Snow bought 1.26 kilograms of candy.
