Step-by-ste
Oh, oh! This is such a tricky question...
Guess what!
Both of them are correct. Why?
Because if we simplify 3/12, we get 1/4th!
(How do you simplify?)
3/12 = 1/4
Because if we divide both "3" and "12" in 3/12 by 3, we get 1 instead of 3 and 4 instead of 12.
I hope you've got it! ;)
Answer:
6 socks
Step-by-step explanation:
What we must do is calculate the probability of this happening, that he takes out two black socks in the first two taken out.
There are 12 black socks and in total they are 24, therefore the probability of drawing 1 is:
12/24
and now the probability of getting another one is 11 (there is one less outside) and in total they are 23:
11/23
the final probability is the multiplication of these events:
(12/24) * (11/23)
P = 0.24
Now, to know how many you should get, we multiply the probability by the total number of socks, that is:
0.24 * 24 = 5.76
So you must take out at least 6 socks for the above to happen.
Easier than it looks, all you have to do is first subtract 13 from 299. You should get 286. Then, you just divide this number by two to get 143. Finally, since it asks for ZENA'S average, you add the 13 back to 143 to get the final answer of the average number of pins Zena took down, which is 156!
Answer:
therefore the side of the square is 2x + 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let the side of the square be a
ii) therefore the perimeter of the square = 4a
iii) therefore 4a = 8x + 20
iv) therefore a = 2x + 5
therefore the side of the square is 2x + 5.
