5/6 of an hour is 50 min. So 50 times 3 equals 150 min for reading. 3/4 of an hour is 45 min. 45 times 2 equals 90 min for science. And 1/2 of an hour is 30 min. So 30 times 4 equals 120 mins for math. Add 150,90, and 120 min all together and you get 360 mins total. Divide 360 by 60, and you get 6 hours total that Michaela spent on reading, math, and science. Not 2 1/2.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood of an event taking place.

-Given there are 95 white and 5 blue pieces, the total number of papers is 100.

-The theoretical first attempt probability is equivalent to the number of each paper divided by the total:

P(blue)= \frac{no \ of \ blue}{total}\\\\=\frac{5}{100}\\\\=0.05

Hence, the theoretical probability that a blind-folded person draws a blue piece of paper on the first attempt is 0.05 or 5%
