<span>Find the probability that 
1.Comic D will perform first

D _ _ _ _ _
 We can fill the 5 blanks with the 5 letters A, B,C,E,F in 5! = 120 ways
The probability of that is 120 ways out of 720 or 120/720 or 1/6. 

2. Comic B will perform fifth and Comic A will perform last
_ _ _ _ B A
We can fill the 4 blanks with the 4 letters C,D,E, F in 4! = 24 ways.
The probability of that is 24 ways out of 720 or 24/720 or 1/30.

3. The comedians will perform in the following order D, B, A, C, F, E
There is just 1 way that can happen. The probability of that is 1 way out of 720 or 1/720.

4.Comic F or E will perform third.
_ _ F _ _ _
There are 5! = 120 ways to fill those 5 blanks with the letters A,B,C,D, E.
In addition to those, there are another 5! = 120 ways to fill these 5 blanks _ _ E _ _ _ with the letters A,B,C,D,F. That's 2(5!) = 2(120) = 240 ways.
The probability of one of those is 240 ways out of 720 or 240/720 or 1/3.

solong [7]

Answer:

£100

Step-by-step explanation:

if the ratio is 7:3, the difference between them is 7-3 . = 4.

So,

4x = £40

Now, calculate x

x = £10

Now,

we are able to calculate:

7x (Bridget's share) = £70

3x (Caroline's share) = £30

Sum = £100

Hope this helps.

Good Luck
