Answer:  Yes; the fraction, \frac{40}{5} , can be simplified.
______________________________________________________
One way: \frac{40}{5}   =  40 ÷ 5 = 8 ; or write as: \frac{8}{1}.
_________________________________________________________
Other way: \frac{40}{5}  = \frac{40/5}{5/5}
                                                            =   \frac{8}{1}  ; or,  8 .

Suppose that E and F are two events and that Upper P (Upper E and Upper F )equals0.3 and Upper P (Upper E )equals0.5. What is Up
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

P(\frac{F}{E}) =\frac{0.3}{0.5} =0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>:-

Suppose that E and F are two events and that P(E n F) = 0.3

also given P(E) =0.5

<u>Conditional probability</u>:-

if E₁ and E₂ are two events in a Sample S and P(E₁)≠ 0, then the probability of E₂ , after the event E₁ has occurred, is called the <u>Conditional probability</u>

of the event E₂ given  E₁ and is denoted by

P(\frac{F}{E}) = \frac{P(EnF)}{P(E)}

P(\frac{F}{E}) =\frac{0.3}{0.5} =0.6

Introduction to addition or subtraction of fractions with different denominator 3/4-1/8
snow_lady [41]
The denominator must be the same, so just think of the LEAST COMMON MULTIPLE, The LCM here is 8, because you can multiply 4 by 2 to get 8.
so when you multiply, you multiply both on the top and on the bottom, so this would be:
3 x 2 / 4 x 2 = 6 / 8
Now you can add or subtract: 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8
