Add the balance and allotment:

22.90 + 50.00 = 72.90

This is how much she can actually spend.

She spent 85.50.

Subtract the two:

85.50 - 72.90 = 12.60

Since she spent more than she actually could be balance would be a negative number.

The balance would be  - $12.60

James is running on a trail that is 5/4 of a mile long. So far he has run 2/3 of the trail. How many miles has he run so far?
aalyn [17]
Step 1) You would need to convert your 2 fractions into equivalent numbers. In this case, the closet gcf (greatest common factor) is 12. So, 5/4 would convert to 15/12 and  2/3 converts to 8/12.

Step 2) You know have your decimals that are equivalent. All you have left now is to subtract. Take 15/12 and subtract 8/12 from it. You would now get 7/12 of a mile that is still needed to run. 

Step 3) Usually, you would simplify your new fraction. In this case, our fraction doesn't simplify. It will stay 7/12 of a mile. For example, If our number had ended up being 4/12, then we would simplify it to 1/3 of a mile. Because, 4 divided by 4 is 1 and 12 divided by 4 is 3. You can't simplify your answer anymore.

Hope this helped!

It is impossible to get 6 jacks when selecting cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a proba
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Probability = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

If something happening is impossible, it's probability of occurring is also 0.

A deck of cards only contains 4 jacks.

Thus you can never get 6 jacks out of the deck without replacing the selected card each time.

Since we are not replacing the cards once we pick them, this event is impossible to occur.
