since 17 is a prime number and 26 is not a multiple of 17
17/26 is in simplest form
The probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649
<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>
The numbers are given as:
1 to 23
There are five matching numbers
The probability of getting a match is:
p = 5-k/n where k = 0, 1, 2
While the complement probability is
q = (n - 2)/n
Using the above formulas, the probability of getting from 5 is:
P = 5/23 * 4/22 * 3/21 * 18/20 * 17/19
Evaluate the product
P = 153/33649
Hence, the probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649

Answer:
16.9
Step-by-step explanation:
12. 1.625 [terminating]; 13. 0.83 [bar notation over 3 (repeating)]; 14. 900 cm = 9 m; 15. 0.23 cm = 2.3 mm
Repeating decimals are parts of decimals that have repetitive digits; terminating decimals are decimals whose digits end.
Whether you are using Metric or Imperial, you have to determine whether you are going from a small unit to a big unit or vice versa. Then perform your operation. So, in exercise 14, the smaller unit is centimeters, so you would be going from big to small. Exercise 15 has you going from small to big.
There are centimeters in one meter, so multiply 9 by to get 900 centimeters.
There are 10 millimeters in one centimeter, so divide 2.3 by 10 simply by moving the decimal point ONCE to the left [Power of 10].
small to BIG → Division
BIG to small → Multiplication
