$18,011.1 = 18,011+\frac{1}{10}=18,011+\frac{10}{100} \\ 18,111.01 = 18,111+\frac{1}{100} = 18,011+100+\frac{1}{100}$

$18,111.01 \ \textgreater \ 18,011.1$ because $100+\frac{1}{100}\ \textgreater \ \frac{10}{100} \iff 100 \ \textgreater \ 1 \ \textgreater \ \frac{9}{100}$ .

Answer:

p= $\frac{181}{301}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question simply asks for a union scenario thus the law of AND & OR is applicable.

Therefore:-Those who have both cats and dogs partially have cats.

$P(X=both \ cat \ and \ dog)=\frac{18100}{30100}\\p=\frac{181}{301}$

Enter the numerator that makes the equation true.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation in mixed fraction form as;

1 3/4 + 1 1/3 = 1 _/12 + 1 4/12 ⇒ 7/4 + 4/3 = _ + 16/12

7/4 + 4/3 = _ + 16/12

37/12 = _ + 16/12

37/12 - 16/12 = _

= 21/ 12

= 1 9/12

= 1 3/4
