Answer:

6 \frac{3}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by turning 8 1/2 into an improper fraction, which would be 17/2. To find the amount of cups needed for a cake that is 3/4 of a full cake, we multiply 17/2 by 3/4.

\frac{17}{2} *\frac{3}{4} = \frac{17*3}{2*4} = \frac{51}{8}

Turn the fraction into a mixed number:

6 \frac{3}{8}

That should be the correct answer. Hope this helps!!!

John and Jane are married. The probability that John watches a certain television show is .5. The probability that Jane watches
Tanzania [10]

Answer: a) 0.15

b) 0.300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability that John watches a certain television show : P(John)=0.5

The probability that Jane watches the show is : P(Jane)= 0.5.

The probability that John watches the show, given that Jane does

=P(John | Jane)=0 .3.

Using Condition  probability formula P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}, we have

P(A\cap B)=P(B|A)\timesP(A)

Similarly,

a) The probability that both John and Jane watch the show will be :-

\text{P(John}\cap \text{Jane)}=\text{P(John }|\text{ Jane)}\times\text{P(Jane)}\\\\=0.3\times0.5=0.15

b) The probability that Jane watches the show, given that John does will be :-

\text{P(John }|\text{ Jane)}=\dfrac{\text{P(John}\cap \text{Jane)}}{\text{P(John)}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.15}{0.5}=0.3

Hence, the probability that Jane watches the show, given that John does. = 0.300
