Answer: 33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the number of green balls in the basket:
= Total - yellow - blue - red
= 18 - 4 - 6 - 2
= 6 balls
The probability of picking a green ball can be found by the formula:
= Number of green balls / Number of total balls
= 6 / 18
= 33.3%
Answer:
4/7 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Required fabric is > 1/2 but < 5/8
Let required fabric = x
Then ;
Converting the fractions to decimal :
1/2 = 0.5 ; 5/8 = 0.625
0.5 < x < 0.625
3/8 yards = 0.375 ;
4/7 yards = 0.571
3/7 yards = 0.429
2/4 yards = 0.5
0.5 < 0.571 < 0.625
From the options, only 4/7 yards satisfies the condition :

Answer:
3 dimes and 10 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add 7 dimes, then the number of dimes and quarters is the same, and the total increases to $3.50. A dime and a quarter have a value together of $0.35. Since there are equal numbers, the value $3.50 must be made up of some quantity of groups with a value of $0.35. That number of groups must be ...
... $3.50/$0.35 = 10
Thus, there are 10 quarters and 10-7 = 3 dimes.
_____
<em>Using an equation</em>
Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the amount Bess has is ...
... 0.10(q -7) +0.25q = 2.80
... 0.35q - 0.70 = 2.80
... 0.35q = 3.50 . . . . . add 0.70 . . . . . . . this should look familiar
... q = 3.50/0.35 = 10
