<h3>No it is never possible</h3>

Why not? Because the probability is always between 0 and 1, inclusive of both endpoints.

0 represents impossibility

1 represents absolute certainty

The value 1.5 is larger than 1, so it is outside the range of 0 to 1.

Saying a probability of 1.5 is like saying "the chances of an event happening are 150%" but the largest the percentage can go is 100%, which represents absolute certainty.

How many 3/4s are in 3 2/4

MArishka [77]

Answer:

the answer is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the whole number (3) to quaters or fraction

3x $\frac{4}{4}$ = $\frac{12}{4}$

Now, add

$\frac{2}{4}$ + $\frac{12}{4}$ = $\frac{14}{4}$ Since, we have the same common denominator

now divide

14÷4 =3.5 = 3 $\frac{2}{4}$

Therefore, there are 3 of 3/4 with a remainder of $\frac{2}{4}$ in 3 $\frac{2}{4}$ .
