Answer:

51/12

as a mixed number

4 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

first you add 8 to 4 which is 12

so the improper fraction would be 51/12

how to turn it in to a mixed number in simplest form

step 1 - Find Whole Number

Calculate out how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. To do that, divide 51 by 12 and keep only what is to the left of the decimal point:

51 / 12 = 4.2500 = 4

Step 2 - Find New Numerator

Multiply the answer from Step 1 by the denominator and deduct that from the original numerator.

51 - (12 x 4) = 3

Step 3 - Put Together

Keep the original denominator and use the answers from Step 1 and Step 2 to get this:

Step 4 - Minimize

Minimize the fraction part from Step 3 by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3, which is the greatest common factor, to get the final answer. 51/12 as a Mixed Number is:

The number of point a baketball team cored ha 3,4, and 5 a factor. What i the leat number of point the team could have cored

Inga [223]

The least number of point the team could have scored is the LCM of the factors given = 60.

Factor 1 = 3

Factor 2 = 4

Factor 3 = 5

therefore, LCM

= 4 * 5 * 3 [because they don't have any factors in common]

= 60

The positive integers that can divide a number evenly are referred to as factors. Let's say we multiply two numbers to produce a result. The product's factors are the number that is multiplied.

Each number has a self-referential element. There are several examples of factors in everyday life, such putting candies in a box, arranging numbers in a certain pattern, giving chocolates to kids, etc. We must apply the multiplication or division method in order to determine a number's factors.

Please tell me correct and

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ or $0.25$ (they're the same)

Step-by-step explanation:

First Part:

$4^{3} = 64$
$8^{2} = 64$
$2 = 2$
Multiply them together: 64 × 64 × 2 = 8192

Second Part:

$2^{7} = 128$
$16^{2} = 256$
Multiply them together: 128 × 256 = 32768

Wrap it all up:

8192 ÷ 32768 = 0.25 = 1/4

I hope this helps!

A random sample of 4000 college students yielded 2250 who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirts. Estimate the true proportion

Andreas93 [3]

Answer: (0.5496, 0.5754)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion (p) is given by :-

$\hat{p}\pm z*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$ , where $\hat{p}$ = Sample proportion , n= sample size , z*= Critical z-value.

Let p be the proportion of all college students who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirt.

Given, A random sample of 4000 college students yielded 2250 who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirts.

i.e. n=4000

$\hat{p}=\dfrac{2250}{4000}=0.5625$

z-value for 90% confidence level is 1.645

Now , 90% confidence interval for p would be :

$0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5625(1-0.5625)}{4000}})$

$=0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{0.0000615234375})\\\\=0.5625\pm (1.645)(0.00784368774876)\\\\\approx0.5625\pm0.0129\\\\=(0.5625-0.0129, \ 0.5625+0.0129)\\\\=(0.5496,\ 0.5754)$

Hence, the required 90% interval = (0.5496, 0.5754)
