Answer:

3 have a license, 5 do not have a license

the first choice is 5 out of 8, or 5/8

the second choice is 4 out of 7, or 4/7

(5/8)*(4/7)=20/56=10/28=5/14

another way to look at it is...

how many ways can you choose 2 people out of 8 people ?

8!/2!(8-2)!=8!/2!*6!=8*7/2=56/2=28 ways

how many ways can you choose 2 people out of 5 people ?

5!/2!(5-2)!=5!/2!*3!=5*4/2=20/2=10

10/28=5/14 again

call the 5 people who don't have a license A,B,C,D, and E

how can they be paired together ?

AB,AC,AD,AE,BC,BD,BE,CD,CE, and DE for a total of 10

again 10/28=5/14

For question 1:
1% = 120 ÷ 100 = 1.2
15% = 1.2 × 15 = 18
So, 15% of 120 is 18

For question 2:
68.4 ÷ 72 = 0.95
0.95 × 100 = 95%
So, the percentage is 95%

For question 3,
1% = 12.5 ÷ 8 = 1.5625
100% = 1.5625 × 100 = 156.25
So, 8% of 12.5 is 156.25.

For question 4,
1% = 48 ÷ 40 = 1.2
100% = 1.2 × 100 = 120
So, 40% of 48 is 120.

For question 5,
1% = 195 ÷ 100 = 1.95
62.5% = 1.95 × 62.5 = 121.875
So, 62.5% of 195 is 121.875
