I would say A. Because if you add the fractions and the divide by 3(because I added the factions) the denominator is 7 and the numerator is 1 (idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think is right)

Answer:

Gerri spends 1/7 (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

If Gerri spends 1/21 of her money on pencils and 2/21 of her money on paper, adding these two fractions together will give us the total fraction of her money that she spent.  Since 1/21 and 2/21 have the same denominator, we can add the numerators to get 3/21.  However, fractions must always be in simplest form, meaning if the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can both be divided evenly by the same factor, then the fraction can be simplied to lower numbers.  In this case the number 3 and the number 21 can both be divided evenly by 3:  (3÷3)/21÷3) = 1/7.

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to solve this is to think of it rephrased as "what is the probability that your second point will be in the same row or column as your first point".  With that frame of reference, you can simply consider how many other points are left that do or do not fall in line with the selected one.

After selecting one, there are 19 points left.

The row that the first one falls in will have 3 remaining empty points.

The column will have 4 remaining empty points.

Add those up and you have 7 possible points that meet the conditions being checked.

So the probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%
