There are 18 coins total in her bag:
7+3+8=18coins
3 of the 18 coins are dimes, so the odds of first drawing a dime are 3/18
P(dime)=3/18
Since the nickel was taken out and not replaced, there are now 17 coins in her purse.
18-1=17coins
8 of the 17 remaining coins are nickels, so the odds of drawing a nickel are 8/17.
P(nickel)=8/17
Now we multiply the two probabilities by eachother to find out the odds of both occurring...
P(dime)*P(nickel)=
3/18*8/17=24/306=8/103=0.078=8%
The probability of grabbing a dime and then a nickel are 8/103 or 0.078 or an 8% chance, whichever way you'd prefer to write it.
Because weight = mass x surface gravity, multiplying your weight on Earth by the numbers above will give you your weight on the surface of each planet. If you weigh 150 pounds (68 kg.) on Earth, you would weigh 351 lbs. (159 kg.) on Jupiter, 57 lbs. (26 kg.) on Mars and a mere 9 lbs. (4 kg.)
Ok, so 1 is a whole number. 1/5 is a fraction of 1. So you want to subtract 1/5 from 1. The number 1 is equal to 5/5. So if you subtract 1/5 from 5/5 you are left with 4/5. You do the same with the second one, just subtract 3/5 from 5/5 to get your answer.
