5 is 10% out of 50, just do 100% of 50 which is 50 therefore 10% of 50=5!
I think it is a compound event because rolling each die is an independent event.
The question you posted doesn't really show the question. Are there any words like how, when, where.... and do you have answer choices? : ) maybe then I can help?
Well you could do 5 3/8 plus 3 1/4 and your denominator 4 can become a 8 so multiply 4x2 to get 8 and 2x1 to get 3 2/8 and add that to 5 3/8 to get the sum of 8 7/8
If you find the volume of each figure separately then add them together, then you'd get your answer.
The formula for volume is V=Base Area*Height, V=BH
So the volume of the smaller cube is 210.
This is because the base area is 15*14. Multiply this by the height, 16, then you get 210.
The volume of the second cube is 25,100. This is because 15+16 is 31. 31*27*30 is 25,100.
If you add both of these volumes together, you're final answer is 25,310 units cubed.
Hope this helped :)
