1 yard is 3 feet.
18/3 = 6
Therefore, the actual ratio is 6 yards to 5 yards. Getting rid of like terms, we find that the simplest form ratio is 6:5

Yes 18:5 for every 18 feet there is 5 yards

A bag contains 42 red marbles, 6 white marbles, and 8 gray marbles. You randomly pick out a marble, record its color, and put it

Elanso [62]

For any single draw,

$\mathbb P(\text{white})=\dfrac6{42+6+8}=\dfrac6{56}$
$\mathbb P(\text{gray})=\dfrac8{42+6+8}=\dfrac8{56}$

Drawing a white marble or a gray marble are disjoint events; only one of them can happen. So

$\mathbb P(\text{white or gray})=\mathbb P(\text{white})+\mathbb P(\text{gray})-\underbrace{\mathbb P(\text{white and gray})}_0$
$\mathbb P(\text{white or gray})=\dfrac6{56}+\dfrac8{56}=\dfrac{14}{56}$

Out of 224 draws, you should expect $\dfrac{14}{56}\times224=56$ of the marbles to be either white or gray.

How could I write the fractions 8/100 3/5 and 7/10 from least to greatest?

iVinArrow [24]

Get them to have a common denominator. 100 is the common denominator, so change 7/10 and 3/5 to have a denominator of 100. 7/10=70/100 and 3/5=60/100. So from least to greatest it will go 8/100, 3/5, 7/10.
