The question also states that Lucy has a winning probability of 1/50, which means that she has 1 chance of winning if the total runners were 50. Therefore, there are 49 runners who may be faster than her.
The fact that Lucy is the 50th slowest runner, means that starting from the slowest she is in 50th position, therefore there are 49 runners that are slower than her.
The total number of runners will be the sum of those faster than Lucy, those slower than Lucy and Lucy:
49 + 49 + 1 = 99
There are 99 runners in Lucy's school.
Answer:
6.4 minutes ( or 6 minutes and 24 seconds)
Step-by-step explanation:
Filling up the jug means the empty space is 0, hence V = 0.
<em>We plug in 0 into V and solve for t to get the time required to fill it up:</em>
Hence it will take 6.4 minutes to fill up the jugs.
<u>Note:</u> 0.4 minutes in seconds is 
seconds
Look at the ten thousands place in 337,676. It is 3. Take one away from it to get the answer. It is 327,676.
