first you would convert 1 2/3 into a improper faction. So you would multiply 1 and 3 then add 2 so 5/3 then multiply that by 1/2. You would multiply the numerators and denominators, so 5 times 1 and 3 times 2 which gives you 5/6.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a sample of 800 U.S. adults, 199 think that most celebrities are good role models. Two Two U.S. adults are selected at random from the population of all U.S. adults without replacement.

In 800 adults 199 are favourable and remaining 601 are against.

a) The probability that both adults think most celebrities are good role models is ________= Prob of selecting both from 199

= $\frac{199C2}{800C2} \\=0.0616$

=0.062

b) The probability that neither adult thinks most celebrities are good role models is _______=P(both selecting from 601)

= $\frac{601C2}{800C2} \\=0.5641$

=0.564

c) The probability that at least one of the two adults thinks most celebrities are good role models ______

=1-Prob that neither thinks

= 1- 0.564

= 0.436
