Answer:

1.26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.

First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=14\times 90$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=1260$

We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert 1260 grams into kg, we will divide 1260 by 1000 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=\frac{1260}{1000}$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=1.26$

Therefore, Mr. Snow bought 1.26 kilograms of candy.

erik drove 439.92 miles on 15.6 gallons of gas. To the nearest hundredth, how many miles could he drive on 39.7 gallons of gas?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

In the question it is already given that Eric drove for 439.92 miles on 15.6 gallons. It is required to find the distance traveled on 39.7 gallons of gas. Also we have to find the answer to the nearest hundredth.
Then,
In 15.6 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = 439.92 miles
In 39.7 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = [(439.92/15.6) * 39.7] miles
= 1119.54 miles
So the total distance traveled by Eric is 1120 miles with 39.7 gallons of gas. The answer has been calculated to the nearest hundredth.

The Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging

Clerk I II III total

Pack 0.33 0.23 0.44 1

Defective 0.02 0.025 0.015

Pack&def 0.0066 0.00575 0.0066 0.01895

a) probability that a randomly selected box of chocolates was packed by Clerk 2 and does not contain any defective chocolate

= P(II clerk) -P(II clerk and defective) = $0.23-0.00575=0.22425$

b) the probability that a randomly selected box contains defective chocolate=P(I and def)+P(ii and def)+P(iiiand def)

=0.01895

c) Suppose a randomly selected box of chocolates is defective. The probability that it was packaged by Clerk 3

=P(clerk 3 and def)/P(defective)

= $\frac{0.0066}{0.01895} \\=0.348285$
