Serhud [2]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: 5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space when two 6- sided dice are rolled is given below:

(+) 1 2 3 4 5 6

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

2 3 4 5 6 7 8

3 4 5 6 7 8 9

4 5 6 7 8 9 10

5 6 7 8 9 10 11

6 7 8 9 10 11  12

The total sample space is 36.

Sum greater than 8 are : {9,10,11,12}

which are 10 in number:

Therefore : the probability that the sum of the two numbers on the dice will be greater than 8 will be :

number of the sum greater than 8 / Total sample space

That is ;

P(sum greater than 8) = 10/36

P(sum greater than 8) = 5/18

During the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours.The second one was
butalik [34]

Answer:

2nd debate was 3 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.

Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.

1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.

2*2=4

Therefore, the estimated time is less 4 hours.

To find the time spent on 2nd debate, we will multiply 1 2/3 by 1 4/5.

First of all, we will convert mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

1\frac{2}{3}=\frac{5}{3}

1\frac{4}{5}=\frac{9}{5}

Now, we will multiply both fractions as:

\frac{5}{3}\times \frac{9}{5}

\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{9}{1}

\frac{9}{3}\Rightarrow 3

Therefore, the 2nd debate was 3 hours long.
