We have an equation: 315/? = 5/3

Cross multiply:
5*? = 315*3
⇒ ? = 315*3/5 = 189

There were 189 riders~

Set up a proportion, then solve.

5/3 = 315/x

Cross multiply

5*x = 5x
3*315 = 945

5x = 945
5x/5 = 945/5

x= 945/5
x= 189

Final answer: The riders are 189

What is the probability of not drawing a card 6 or greater from a regular deck of cards?
Mamont248 [21]
Ok so there are 52 cards in a deck if you take all the cards that have the number 6 which is only 4 cards so 52-4 = 48 cards without any 6 so the ratio is 48/52 
chances.

If you're trying to take any card that is greater than 6 its a little more complex there is T,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,B,Q,K so you have to tack away 6,7,8,9,10,B,Q,K from 4 rows so 8 x 4 =32 cards 52-32= 20 so the probability of not having any cards greater than 6 is 20/52
