Is 30/12 and 40/16 equivalent?

1 answer:

6 0

$We\ pull\ the\ whole\ numbers\ from\ fractions:\\\\ \frac{30}{12}=2\frac{6}{12}=2\frac{1}{2}\\\\
\frac{40}{16}=2 \frac{8}{16}=2\frac{1}{2}\\\\\
\frac{30}{12}=\frac{40}{16}\\\\They\ are\ equivalent.$

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

As per the statement:

Mr. Mendez had 24 cows on his farm.

⇒He had number of cows on his farm = 24 cows.

At an auction, he bought 5 more cows

Change in number of cows = 5

We have to find the percent of change in the number of cows on the farm.

$\text{percent} = \frac{5}{24} \times 100$

Simplify:

$\text{Percent} = 20.8333333\%$

Therefore, the percent of change in the number of cows on the farm (to the nearest tenth) is 20.8%

Answer:

The probability that 8 mice are required is 0.2428.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A scientist inoculates mice, one at a time, with a disease germ until he finds 3 that have contracted the disease. If the probability of contracting the disease is two sevenths.

To find : What is the probability that 8 mice are required? The probability that that 8 mice are required is nothing ?

Solution :

Applying binomial distribution,

$P(X=r)=^nC_r p^rq^{n-r}$
