Answer:

0.77 or 77%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Percentage of brown peanuts = 12%

Percentage of yellow peanuts = 15%

Percentage of red peanuts = 12%

Percentage of blue peanuts = 23%

Percentage of orange peanuts = 23%

Percentage of green peanuts = 15%

Total = 0.12 + 0.15 + 0.12 + 0.23 + 0.23 + 0.15 = 1

Probability that a randomly selected peanut M&M is not orange:

P(orange)' = 1 - P(orange)

Where,

P(orange) = 23% = 0.23

Thus,

P(orange)' = 1 - 0.23

P(orange) ' = 0.77

Probability that a randomly selected peanut is not orange = 0.77

Jodie bought some shirts for $6 each.  Marge bought some shirts for $8 each.  The girls spent the same amount of money on shirts
FrozenT [24]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The least amount of money they could have spent is $24


<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

To get the least amount of money they could have spent, we will need to get the lowest common multiple of both numbers (6 and 8).

This means that we need to find that least number that is found in both multiplication tables


Multiples of 6:

6 * 1 = 6

6 * 2 = 12

6 * 3 = 18

6 * 4 = 24


Multiples of 8:

8 * 1 = 8

8 * 2 = 16

8 * 3 = 24


Noticing the two multiples, we can note that the lowest common multiple is 24.

This means that the lowest amount they could have spent is 24


Hope this helps :)
