7/8*8/9 = (7*8)/(8*9)
Since we have an 8 both above and below, we can erase it, and so the answer is 7/9

Answer:
k = 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard equation of a proportional relationship is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
y = 0.25x ← is in this form
with k = 0.25

Given: Sybil has 1/2 of a pizza left over.
If she share the pizza with 3 of her friends, to find the fraction of the original pizza will Sybil and her 3 friends each receive, we need to divide 1/2 by 3 we get
The fraction of the original pizza will Sybil and her 3 friends each receive
Answer:
The probability that a book picked at random is either a work written by an author who writes only nonfiction or a work written by a man is 75.8%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability, in this case, has to be calculated using the sum rule because the events are independent.
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) - P(men non-fiction); where P is the probability. It means the probability that the random book was written by a man plus the probability that the random book was non-fiction minus the probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction. The probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction has to be subtracted, if not you will be duplicating it.
Facts:
P(men) = 60% = 99/165
P(non-fiction) = 40% = 66/165
P(men non-fiction) = 40/165
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) – P(men non-fiction)
P = 99/165 + 66/165 – 40/165
P = 125/165
P = 0.758 or 75.8%
