Answer

14/15 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

=1+215−15

Solving the fraction parts

2/15−15=?

Find the LCD of 2/15 and 1/5 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 15

2/15−3/15=−1/15

Combining the whole and fraction parts

1−1/15=14/15

Solution by Formulas

converting mixed numbers to fractions, our initial equation becomes,

17/15−15

Applying the fractions formula for subtraction,

=(17×5)−(1×15)15×5

=85−15/75

=70/75

Simplifying 70/75, the answer is

=14/15

A factory produces 80,000 candies each day. They produce equal quantities of four favors: cherry,lemon,orange,and strawberry. Th
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

0.25 is the probability that the randomly selected candy is orange.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of candies = 80,000

Four equal number of flavored candies:

cherry,lemon,orange,and strawberry

Thus, number of orange candies =

= \dfrac{\text{Total number of candies}}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{80000}{4} = 20000

Thus, 20,000 orange flavored candies are produced.

\text{Probability} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}

P(orange) =

=\dfrac{\text{Number of orange candies}}{\text{Total number of candies}}\\\\=\dfrac{20000}{80000} = \dfrac{1}{4} = 0.25

0.25 is the probability that the randomly selected candy is orange.
