Procedure:
1) calculate the number of diferent teams of four members that can be formed (with the ten persons)
2) calculate the number of teams tha meet the specification (two girls and two boys)
3) Divide the positive events by the total number of events: this is the result of 2) by the result in 1)
Solution
1) the number of teams of four members that can be formed are:
10*9*8*7 / (4*3*2*1) = 210
2) Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = ways of chosing 2 boys * ways of chosing 2 girls
Ways of chosing 2 boys = 6*5/2 = 15
Ways of chosing 2 girls = 4*3/2 = 6
Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = 15 * 6 = 90
3) probability of choosing one of the 90 teams formed by 2 boys and 2 girls:
90/210 = 3/7
Divide the previous value by 5.

Step-by-step explanation:
ITS SIMPLE JUST CACULATE IT
What is the time it takes Sanjay to complete the puzzle? 6 hours
What is the time it takes Felipe to complete the puzzle? 8 hours
We can use the general formula of rate and time to solve this problem. Generally we have,
<em><u>Rate * Time = Work/Job</u></em>
<em>** where Work/Job for this problem is 1 since they are doing 1 work, which is solving a puzzle</em>
- <u>Finding rate of Sanjay:</u>

- <u>Finding rate of Felipe:</u>

Working together, their rate is the sum,
Total Rate =
.
Using the general formula again, we can find the time it will take to solve the puzzle when both works together.
hours
Rounding the answer, we have 3.4 hours.
ANSWER: 3.4 hours
