Answer:
a) 7:10
Step-by-step explanation:
An example of this would be having seven blue marbles and three red marbles in a jar. If you randomly select one, the chance of that marble being blue is seventy, because 10 (total number of marbles) divided by seven (number of blue marbles) is 0.70, and if you convert this to a whole number (by multiplying it by 100) you get 70.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
You simplify a fraction by finding it's greatest common factor. A greatest common factor is what both numbers are divisible by. If they can both be divided by two, then you've simplified them a little bit. Keep going until you can't find a common number that can be divided by the two, and you've got your simplified fraction. For example, 10/5 = 1/2 since both 10 and 5 is divisible by 5.
