3\frac{3}{35} pound of strawberry

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

    Pounds of strawberry picked by Lexi =2 \frac{7}{10}

    Pounds of strawberry eaten by Lexi sister = \frac{7}{8}

Unknown:

Pound of strawberry Lexi's sister ate = ?

Solution:

This is a fraction word problem.

  Let pound of strawberry eaten by Lexi's sister = K

We can establish that:

  Pound of strawberry eaten by Lexi sister x K = Pound of strawberry picked by Lexi

Mathematically we have:

         \frac{7}{8} x K = 2 \frac{7}{10}

             K =  \frac{27 x 8}{10 x 7} = \frac{216}{70}

            K = 3\frac{3}{35} pound of strawberry

expeople1 [14]

The probability that one of each color is selected is \frac{10x - x^2}{45}

<h3>Probabilities</h3>

The probability of an event is the chances of the said event

The given parameters are:

  • Total  = 10
  • Red = x
  • Blue = 10 - x

<h3>Calculating the required probability</h3>

The probability that one of each color is selected is calculated as follows:

P = P(Blue) \times P(Red) + P(Red) \times P(Blue)

So, we have:

P = \frac{10 - x}{10} \times \frac{x}{9} + \frac{x}{10} \times \frac{10 - x}{9}

This gives

P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{90} +\frac{x(10 - x)}{90}

Take LCM

P = \frac{2x(10 - x)}{90}

Simplify the above expression

P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{45}

Expand

P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}

Hence, the probability that one of each color is selected is P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}
