9/10 : 1/10 = 45,000,000 : x
x = 45000000/9 = 5,000,000
Answer: 5 million acres
2 2/3 = [(2*3)+2]/3 =8/3
(8/3)/5=8/(3*5)=8/15
(-1,2.5), (0,5), (1,10), (2,20)
You would rather flip the coin 500 times in the first game because over time the percentage should average out to that range.
You would flip the coin 25 times in the second game to let outliers have a greater chance of making a dramatic difference, like having the average be strayed from 50:50 to 25:75 or less
You will need to set up and solve 2 equations:
A) 3 Vans + 10 Buses = 379
B) 14Vans + 13 Buses = 624
Multiply equation A by -14
A) -42 Vans -140 Buses = -5,306 then Multiply equation B by 3
B) 42 Vans + 39 Buses = 1,872
Adding BOTH equations
-101 Buses = -3,434
Each Bus holds 34 Students
Putting this into equation A
A) 3 Vans + 10 Buses = 379
A) 3 Vans + 10 * 34 = 379
A) 3 Vans +340 = 379
A) 3 Vans = 39
Each van = 13 students
