What's a repeating bar?

When you do a division problem and the quotient (answer) ends up being with a number that just keeps repeating say like when you divide

20 ÷ 9 = 2.22222222222

In this case you don't have to write all these 2s, you just put a line on top of the second 2 after the decimal to show that it repeating.

_
2.22

That line is a repeating bar.

Hope this helps. :)

A bag contains 10 tiles with the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Five tiles are chosen, one at a time, and placed in a

lora16 [44]

I assume in this item, we are to find at which step is the mistake done for the calculation of the unknown probability.

For the possible number of arrangement of letter, n(S), the basic principles of counting should be used.
= 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = 30,240

This is similar as to what was done in Meghan's work.

For the five tiles to spell out FACED, there is only one (1) possibility.

Therefore, the probability should be equal to 1/30,240 instead of the 1/252 which was presented in the steps above.

Your crew can pave two driveways in a day. You work five days per week but take off 2 weeks each year for holidays and vacations

k0ka [10]

According to Philippine Payroll Regulations and Information, there will be a total of 247 working days for all employees working from Mondays to Fridays and considered Saturdays and Sundays as rest days. If the two weeks off is referring to employees working days only, it means employee can file a leave for 14 equivalent days off. Computations will be Total driveways= (247 days-14 days off) * 2 driveways per day and the answer is 466 driveways.
