Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

6 blue socks

7 white socks and

8 gray socks

Total number of socks = 6 + 7 + 8

= 21

Probability of picking a blue sock without looking = no of blue socks / total number of socks

That’s 6/21

= 2/7

The probability of picking a blue sock is 2/7

Answer:

Pr(blue) = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue = 6

White = 7

Gray = 8

Total socks = 6+7+8 =21

Probability of picking blue = number of blue ➗ total number of socks

Pr(blue) = 6/21

Divide both by 3 to make the fraction to the lowest term.

Pr(blue) = 2/7

V125BC [204]

Answer:

<u>24 pieces</u> of fruits are use to make 2 fruit salads.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ken uses 6 apples and 2 bananas to make a fruit salad. He put twice as many oranges as bananas in the salad.

Now, to find the number of pieces of fruit Ken will use to make 2 fruit salads.

So, pieces of fruits use to make a salad are:

Apples = 6.

Bananas = 2.

Oranges = twice of bananas = 2×2=4.

So, total pieces of fruits to make a salad = 6+2+4=12.

Now, total pieces of fruits to make 2 fruit salads:

(6+2+4)\times 2

=12\times 2

=24.

Therefore, 24 pieces of fruits are use to make 2 fruit salads.
