We know that <span>the probability of the Galaxy team winning is 22%------> 0.22 </span>the probability of the Galaxy team losing is 100%-22%----> 78%-----> 0.78
<span>the probability of the Komets team winning is 47%------> 0.47 </span>the probability of the Komets team losing is 100%-47%----> 53%-----> 0.53
therefore <span>the probability of the comets losing their race and the galaxy winning theirs is 0.53*0.22=0.1166------> 11.66%
To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation: 46.16-14.75=3.49x To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100 4616-1475=349x 3141=349x x=9
