Let x be the unknown number
x×55%=121
x=121÷55%
x=220
So 121 is 55% of 220
Answer:
Option C 5/12 is correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the probability that shows yellow dice has a larger value than the red dice.
Probability= total no of favorable outcomes / total no of outcomes
in our case, considering the data set, we have to find those pair where value of yellow die is greater than the red die. Where (1,2) represents 1 on the red die and 2 on the yellow die
(1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)
(2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)
(3,4) (3,5) (3,6)
(4,5) (4,6)
(5,6)
These are the possibilities where yellow die has greater value than red die.
total no of favorable outcomes = 15
total no of outcomes = 36
probability that yellow die has greater value than red die = 15 / 36
= 5/ 12
Option C 5/12 is correct option
Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons used by the 40 mpg and 35 mpg cars, respectively.
.. x +y = 40 . . . . . . . . . . .total consumption is 40 gallons
.. 40x +35y = 1525 . . . . total miles driven = 1525
Multiply the first equation by 40 and subtract the second.
.. 40(x +y) -(40x +35y) = 40(40) -(1525)
.. 5y = 75
.. y = 15
.. x = 40 -15 = 25
The 40 mpg car consumed 25 gallons.
The 35 mpg car consumed 15 gallons.
