A calzone is divided into 24 equal pieces. Glenn and Ben each ate one eighth of the calzone on Thursday. The next​ day, Ben ate

one third of the calzone that was leftover. How many of the pieces of the original calzone ​remain? Explain your reasoning. ​Together, Glenn and Ben ate nothing ​piece(s) on Thursday​, and Ben ate nothing ​piece(s) the next day. To find the number of pieces that​ remain, ▼ subtract these numbers from add these numbers to the total number of pieces.​ So, nothing pieces of the original calzone remain.

Answer:

12 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Since on Thursday Glenn and Ben each ate an eight, then total they ate 2*1/8=2/8=¼

¼ of 24 pieces is equivalent to

¼*24=6 pieces

The number of pieces that remain would be 24-6=18 pieces

The one third of leftover ate rhe next day will be equivalent to

⅓ of 18

⅓*18=6 pieces

Remaining pieces next day will be 18-6=12 pieces

Therefore, only 12 pieces out of 24 original pieces remain the following day.

Find the missing probability. P(B)=720,P(A|B)=14 ,P(A∩B)=?
Ivan

Answer:

7/80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: P(B) = 7 / 20, P(A|B)= 1 / 4

Bayes theorem is used to mathematically represent the conditional probability of an event A given B. According to Bayes theorem:

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

Where P(B) is the probability of event B occurring, P(A ∩ B) is the probability of event A and event B occurring and P(A|B) is the probability of event A occurring given event B.

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}\\\\P(A \cap B)=P(A|B)*P(B)\\\\Substituting:\\\\P(A \cap B)=1/4*7/20=7/80\\\\P(A \cap B)=7/80

Tank a has a capacity of 9.5 gallons. 6 1/3 gallons of the tank's water are poured out. how many gallons of water are left in th
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Water left in tank is 3\frac{1}{6} gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Capacity of tank = 9.5 gallons  =\frac{95}{10}

Water taken out of tank =6\frac{1}{3}=\frac{19}{3} gallons

We have to find the water left in the tank.

Water left in the tank = Total capacity of tank - water taken out of tank

                                    =\frac{95}{10}-\frac{19}{3}

Taking LCM of (3,10)= 30

\Rightarrow \frac{95 \times 3-19 \times10}{30}

Solving further, we get,

\Rightarrow \frac{285-190}{30}

\Rightarrow \frac{95}{30}=\frac{19}{6}=3\frac{1}{6}

Thus, Water left in tank is 3\frac{1}{6} gallons..
