5*5 = 25
5*9= 45
5*1= 5
25 dollars now add the cents
now it is $25.50
Answer:
3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
First we must get the total amount of possibilities.
We have ten numbers(0 included) and 4 letters. 10 * 4 = 40, so 40 total possibilities.
Now, let's see how many possibilities we can have for this.
Consonants in the 4 letters are B, C, D. This means we have 3 possibilities, but we ACTUALLy have 6 since it could b then 3, or 3 then b for all the letters.
So, we end up having 6/40 which simplifies in to 3/20
Yes, it will always be a rational number. I'll expound on this by defining what a rational number is. It is any number that can be expressed as a fraction. Otherwise, it is called an irrational number with a non-terminating decimal expansion. So, although 1/3 has a non-terminating decimal expansion because it is equal to 0.33333333...., it is still a rational number because it can be expressed into a fraction.
Answer: 12 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
the data we have is:
Mei Su had 80 coins.
She gave the coins to her friends, in such a way that every friend got a different number of coins, then we have that:
The maximum number of friends that could have coins is when:
friend 1 got 1 coin
friend 2 got 2 coins
friend 3 got 3 coins
friend N got N coins
in such a way that:
(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + N) ≥ 79
I use 79 because "she gave most of the coins", not all.
We want to find the maximum possible N.
Then let's calculate:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55
now we are close, lets add by one number:
55 + 11 = 66
66 + 12 = 78
now, we can not add more because we will have a number larger than 80.
Then we have N = 12
This means that the maximum number of friends is 12.
