Answer:

7.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Thomas family went for a Sunday drive.

Before they left, Mr. Thomas noticed the gas tank was ¾ full.

When they returned home the gas tank was ⅓ full.

Total capacity of the gas tank = 18 gallons

<u>Question asked:</u>

How many gallons of gas did the car use on the drive?

<u>Solu</u>tion:

Before they left, quantity of gas in the tank = \frac{3}{4} \times18=\frac{54}{4} =13.5\ gallons

When they returned, quantity of gas in the tank = \frac{1}{3} \times18=\frac{18}{3} =6\ gallons

Quantity of gas used on the drive = 13.5 - 6 = 7.5 gallons

Therefore, 7.5 gallons of gas used on the drive by Thomas family.

At a schools field day, students will throw table tennis balls then measure the distance. There are 626 students in the school.
qaws [65]

Answer: 105 packs

Step-by-step explanation: The correct answer is 105 packs of table tennis balls. You need a total of 626 balls, so you divide this by 6 because that is what a standard package contains. The formula is 626/6 = 104.3. You will need 104 packs plus .3 of a pack, which means that you need to round it up to 105 packs of table tennis balls.

the track coach tells Dave that he has 84% of his workout left. Dave has run 4 laps so far. How many laps will Dave run in all
ICE Princess25 [194]
If 4 is 100-84=16 % of his workout, 4 is 16/100 or 4/25 of his workout.  If 4=4x/25, where x is his workout length, dividing by 4 and multiplying by 25 gives x=25, so Dave must run 25 laps total.

4 employees drive to work in the same car. the workers claim they were late to work because of a flat tire. their managers ask t
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.015625.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There number of tires are 4.

The number of workers are 4.

The probability that individual select front drivers side tire = \frac{1}{4}

The probability that they all select front drivers side,tire is: \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{256}

Similarly,

The probability that they all select front passenger side, tire is: \frac{1}{256}

The probability that they all select rear driver side,tire is: \frac{1}{256}

The probability that they all select rear passenger side, tire is: \frac{1}{256}

Hence, the probability that all four workers select the same​ tire = \frac{1}{256}+ \frac{1}{256}+\frac{1}{256}+\frac{1}{256}

the probability that all four workers select the same​ tire = \frac{4}{256}=\frac{1}{64}=0.015625

Hence, the required probability is 0.015625.
