Answer:
<h2>32/1125</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.
Probability = Expected outcome of event/Total outcome.
If a video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week, the total outcome is 15.
If the list for the week includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries and the store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be calculated as shown;
Probability of selecting 2 comedies = 4/15*4/15 = 16/225 (Note that the expected outcome in this case is 4).
Probability of selecting 1 action movie = 6/15 = 2/5
<em>Hence, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be equivalent to 16/225*2/5 = 32/1125</em>
<em>Note that the rented movies will have to be returned hence reason for the replacement. </em>
Answer: 38.25
Step-by-step explanation: You divide the whole number by the denominator in the fraction.
153/4 = 38.25
You start by changing both the a common denominator, this case it would be 100 so it’s 2/100 and 5/100, since 1/50 and 2/100 is the same, each 1/100 is equal to “6” and you have 5/100, which is EQUAL TO 30
