Answer:
P(n) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For two events which are independent, we use the multiplication rule which states P (A and B) = P(A) * P(B). Substitute P(m) = 0.4 and P(m and n) = 0.2 into this formula.
P (m and n) = P(m) * P(n)
0.2 = 0.4*P(n)
Divide by 0.4 on both sides.
0.2 / 0.4 = P(n)
0.5 = P(n)
Answer:
5/24
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the first part of the probelm 5/6 - 2/3
You need to find a common denominator of 6 and 3
common denominator= 6
so change 2/3 to 4/6
now you can subtract the top values
5/6-4/6
5-6=1
keep the denominator the same
= 1/6
Now divide 1/6 by 4/5
to divide you are going to multiply by the reciprocal so instead of 4/5 we are going to flip it to 5/4
1/6 x 5/4
5x1=5 and 6x4=24
= 5/24
3 periods....20 minutes each.....3 * 20 = 60 total minutes playing time
colin plays 12 minutes each period...12 * 3 = 36 minutes
Collins playing time to total playing time = 36/60 reduces to 9/15 or 9:15 or 9 to 15 <===
11 836/1000. Simplified: 11 209/250.
I hope this helps! :)
