fractions:

Fraction is a part of a whole, for example 1/2. Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show the same amount. Improper fractions have numerators that are higher than the denominator, while mixed fractions contain whole numbers and fractions.

In order to compare fractions, you need to change them so they have the same denominator. Fractions can be converted into decimals. You need to be able to work out a fraction of a given quantity.

Fractions of a quantity

How do we find 3/5 of 20?

Method 1 is to find 1/5 of 20, then multiply by 3.

1/5 of 20 is 20 ÷ 5 = 4.

We need 3/5 of 20, so we multiply 4 by 3.

3/5 of 20 = 4 × 3 = 12.

you can put this in your calculator:

3/5<span> × 20 = </span>3/5<span> × </span>20/1<span> = </span>60/5<span> = 12</span>

Christine has always been weak in mathematics. Based on her performance prior to the final exam in Calculus, there is a 40% chan
azamat

Answer:

There are a 25% probability that Christine fails the course.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 50% probability that Christine finds a tutor.

With a tutor, she has a 10% probability of failling.

A 50% probability that Christine does not find a tutor.

Without a tutor, she has a 40% probability of failing.

Probability that she fails:

10% of 50%(fail with a tutor) plus 40% of 50%(fail without a tutor). So

P = 0.1*0.5 + 0.4*0.5 = 0.25

There are a 25% probability that Christine fails the course.

Mags is 2 years older than vector . if mags is 34 years old how old is vector
lord [1]

Answer:

Vector is 32 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is given that Mags is 34 years old and he is 2 years older than Vector.

Since Mags is 2 years older than Vector, Vector's age is 2 year less than Mags.

therefore we subtract 2 years from the age of Mags.

= 34 - 2 = 32 years

So Vector is 32 years old.
