Three feet is 1 yard. 26 feet would be 26/3=8 2/3 yards long.
First, find the lowest common denominator. That is 12. You only have to change 3/4 into 12ths.
3/4 = 9/12
11/12 – 9/12 = 2/12 = 1/6
Answer:
(5/11)(1/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of picking blue = 5/11
Now there are only 10 pencils
probability of picking yellow = 1/10
probability of picking blue, then yellow = (5/11)(1/10) = 1/22
By definition of conditional probability,
P(B | A) = P(A ∩ B)/P(A) = (13/25) / (13/20) = 20/25 = 4/5
