Answer:
The probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Clue is a board game in which you must deduce three details surrounding a murder, and in the original game of Clue, the guilty person can be chosen from 66 people, and there are 66 different possible weapons and 99 possible rooms, and at one point in the game, you have narrowed the possibilities down to 44 people, 55 weapons, and 77 rooms, to determine what is the probability of making a random guess of the guilty person, murder weapon, and location from your narrowed-down choices , and the guess being correct, the following calculation must be performed:
(1 / (44x55x77)) x 100 = X
(1 / 186,340) x 100 = X
0.0005366 = X
Therefore, the probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.
F(x) = 2 x - 5
15 = 2 x - 5
2 x - 5 = 15
2 x = 15 + 5
2 x = 20
x = 20 / 2
x = 10

Consecutive numbers are numbers that increase or reduce by 1 step.
Let the first consecutive number be x.
So the three consecutive number in increasing order are:
x, x + 1, x + 2
Notice each is increase of 1.
3*(Sum of 1st and 3rd) = 4*second + 30
3*(x + x + 2) = 4*(x+1) + 30
3*(2x + 2) = 4*x + 4*1 + 30
3*2x + 3*2 = 4x + 4 + 30
6x + 6 = 4x + 34
Simplify by taking the xs to one side and leaving the numbers on the other side
6x - 4x = 34 - 6
2x = 28 Divide by 2
x = 28/2
x = 14
Recall the largest of the consecutive number = x + 2, x = 14
Largest = x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
Largest = 16
I hope this helps.
