They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.
We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5
So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches
Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever
Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03
Side note: 2.25/81 is equivalent to the reduced fraction 1/36 (express 2.25/81 as 225/8100 and then divide both parts by the GCF 225)
Answer: 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Common denominator is 6 the 1/2 is. 3/6
the 1/3 is 2/6

As a fraction, 54% is 27/50.
Answer:
625 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Break it into a rectangle on the bottom and a triangle on top
rectangle area = 50 x 8 = 400 cm^2
triangle area = 1/2 b * h = 1/2 * 50 * 9 = 225 cm^2
added together = 625 cm^2
