Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that one side of the pancake is burned. The pancake you were served cannot be the one that is not burned on either side. Therefore, you were either served the pancake burned on both sides, or the pancake that was only burned in one side. Thus, there is a 50% percent chance that the other side is also burned.

Now there is a door whose height is more than its width by 6 chi 8 cun. The distance between the [opposite] corners is 1 zhang.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

  • height: 9 chi 6 cun
  • width: 2 chi 8 cun

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor-of-ten relationship between the different units means we can combine the numbers in decimal fashion. If 1 unit is 1 zhang, then 1 chi is 0.1 zhang and 1 cun is 0.01 zhang. Hence 6 chi 8 cun is 0.68 zhang.

Let x and y represent the width and height, respectively. In terms of zhang, we have ...

  y - x = 0.68

  x^2 +y^2 = 1^2

Substituting y = 0.68 +x into the second equation gives ...

  x^2 + (x +0.68)^2 = 1

  2x^2 +1.36x - 0.5376 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 1

Using the quadratic formula, we have ...

  x = (-1.36 ±√(1.36^2 -4(2)(-0.5376)))/(2·2) = (-1.36 ±√6.1504)/4

  x = 0.28 . . . . . the negative root is of no interest

  y = 0.28 +0.68 = 0.96

In units of chi and cun, the dimensions are ...

  height: 9 chi 6 cun

  width: 2 chi 8 cun

I would say about 189 people. I found the percentage of 8 out of 11, which I rounded to the nearest tenth and got 73%. Since that is how much do carry brief cases, I took 100-73 and got 23% for those who don’t carry briefcases. Then I found 23% of 700, which is 189. So, 189 out of 700 people do not carry briefcases.
