Since it is stated that the machine he bought only predict about 80%. Thus, about 20% are still possible that there are oils in the land that he owned.
In a 100% value = 80% were the 0 possibillites detected by the machine and 20% are still the possibility that it has an oil.
=> 80% = 0.80
=> 20% = 0.20
In the given choices. letter B has the closest value to the 20% that we expected.
Thus, let's have B as an answer.

<h3>How to calculate algebra word problems?</h3>
Let the number of cats alice has be x.
Since you have thrice the amount of cats that alice has, then you have 3x cats.
Bob has 7 less cats than you. Thus, bob has; 3x - 7
If they have a total of 56 cats, then;
x + 3x - 7 + 3x = 56
7x - 7 = 56
7x = 56 + 7
7x = 63
x = 63/7
x = 9
Thus, number of cats you have = 3x = 3 * 9 = 27 cats
