In a bag there are 3 red, 3 yellow, 4 green, and 6 blue marbles. What is the probability of p ( blue ) ?
So here we're dealing with equivalent fractions.
It's really simple to find the answer, so I'll try to explain the best I can.
2 dogs / 5 cats is really just 2/5.
If we want to find an equivalent fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
Currently the number of cats is 5, and we need it to be 140. What we need to do is find the number it has to be multiplied by to equal 140, which is 140 divided by 5. 140 divided by 5 is 28, so 5 x 28 = 140!
We need to multiply the denominator (5) by 28, so that we can get 140. What we have now is ?/140.
Like I said, to find an equivalent fraction, we need to multiply the numerator by the same number as we did the denominator, which is 28!
2 x 28 = 56.
So 2/5 is the same as 56/140.
The answer is D) 56 Dogs/140 Cats.
Hope this helps!

Answer: C. 71,224,900
Based on the power, move the decimal point that many spaces to the right. (e.g., If it's 7.9 × 10^3, then move the decimal three spaces to the right, and you'd get 7900.)
3.14159 × 10^7 = 31415900
9.897752 × 10^6 = 9897752
2.468 × 10^7 = 24680000
Out of all the numbers mentioned in the question, 71,224,900 is the only one that's greater than 3.14159 × 10^7 = 31415900.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of the mountain
= Rise in height / Run in distance
= (4215ft - 3720ft) / 5 mi
= 495ft / 5mi
= 99ft/mi. (C)
