Answer:

50 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question:

Chicken : Turkey

= 4:1

Sum Proportions = 4 + 1 = 5

We have to find the weight in grams of the entire pie

Let us represent the weight in grams of the entire pie = x.

The pie contains 200g of Chicken.

Hence:

4/5 × x = 200g

4x/5 = 200g

Cross Multiply

4x = 200g × 5

x = 200g × 5/4

x = 250g

The amount turkey that is in the pie is calculated as:

Total weight of pie - Amount of Chicken in the pie

= 250g - 200g

= 50 g

viva [34]

Answer:

(a) 495, (b) 210

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of persons = 12

number of openings = 8

number of women = 7

number of men = 12 - 7 = 5

(a) Number of ways to select the 8 persons

$C_{8}^{12}\textrm{}\\\\= \frac{12!}{8!\times 4!}\\\\=495$

(b) Three are men

So, 3 men and 5 women

The number of ways are

$C_{3}^{5}\textrm{} \times C_{5}^{7}\textrm{}\\\\= \frac{5!}{3!\times 2!}\times \frac{7!}{5!\times 2!}\\\\=210$
