The probability of choosing a plain pencil from the first box is 5/8. The probability of choosing a color pencil from the second box is 3/12 which simplifies to 1/4. The probability of picking a plain pencil from the first box and picking a color pencil from the second box is 5/32 because 5/8 * 1/4 is 5/32

Final answer is 5/32 :)

You have $814 that you want to share equally between 5 charities.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

give each charity $60

Step-by-step explanation:

$814 to divide equally to 5 charities.

From 814  if we give   -100,  -100, -100, -100, -100, we have left 314 to split in 5

the most useful next step is to give each charity $60

From $814  if we give   -100, -100, -100, -100, -100

                                         -60, -60, -60, -60, -60  

we have left now:

814 -5*100 -5*60 = 814-500-300 = $14 left to split among the 5 charity.
