Answer:
499/999
Step-by-step explanation:
The decimal number written is:
0.499...
Such that these 3 decimals are repeated as:
0.499499499...
Let's define this number as k
k = 0.499...
Let's multiply this number by 1000 (the same number of zeros as important decimals after the decimal point)
we get:
1000*k = (1000)*(0.499...) = 499.499...
Now we can subtract the original number k, so we get:
1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...
In this way, we remove the part after the decimal point:
1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...
(1000 - 1)*k = 499
999*k = 499
Now we can divide both sides by 999
(999*k)/999 = 499/999
k = 499/999
The fraction notation of our number is 499/999 (and this is the simplest form)
Answer:
<em>P</em> = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
45 cards in all
15 blue
15 red
15 green
To figure out the probability of red and blue together, add red and blue.
15 + 15 = 30
Since the total is 45, this is how many 30 will be out of.
30 out of 45 = 30/45
Simplify 30/45 by dividing each side by 15
30 ÷ 15 = 2
45 ÷ 15 = 3
30/45 = 2/3
