Answer:
<em>72 campers participated this year</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
To determine x% of y, we must calculate x*y/100.
The number of campers that participated in Big Lake Camp during its first year was 40. We now want to know the number of campers that participated this year, if the attendance was 180% of the first year's.
The new attendance is calculated as follows:
40 * 180 / 100 = 72
72 campers participated this year
E = some event
C = complement of event E
Since the events are complementary, this means P(E)+P(C) = 1
We know that P(E) = 3*P(C) since "an event is three times as likely as its complement"
So we can replace P(E) with 3*P(C) and then isolate P(C)
P(E) + P(C) = 1
3*P(C) + P(C) = 1
4*P(C) = 1
P(C) = 1/4
The probability of the complementary event is 1/4
So the probability of the original event is 3/4 (three times 1/4)
Answer: 3/4
note: in decimal form, 3/4 = 0.75
We know that you need 18 teaspoons of weed killer and 3 gallons of water. We can represent this as a fraction as 18/3. We can simplify this fraction. 18/3 simplified is 6/1. Next, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 4. (6*4 is 24.) This gives us 24/4. This means that for 24 teaspoons of weed killer, we need 4 gallons of water.
