Answer:
17/60 yards of scarf
Step-by-step explanation:
If 5 friends each had one part of a scarf that's 1 and 5/12 yards long what fraction of the scarf could each friend knit
To solve the above question:
5 friends = 1 5/12 yards
1 friend = x yards
Cross Multiply
5 × x = 1 × 1 5/12 yards
x = 17/12 yards ÷ 5
x = 17/12 yards × 1/5
x = 17/60 yards of scarf
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4 quarts=1 gallon
1 quart=1/4 gallon
6 quarts 1/4×6=6/4 gallons=3/2 gallons =1 1/2 gallons
or we can say 4 quarts=1 gallon
2 quarts=1/2 gallon
(4+2=6)quarts=(1+1/2)=1 1/2 gallon.
corrected question:A jar contains two blue and five green marbles. A marble is drawn at random and then replaced. A second marble drawn at random. For each of the following, find the probability that: a) both marbles are blue b) both marbles are the same color c)the marbles are different in color
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The probability was done with replacement.</em></u>
Probaility of an event happening
number of blue marbles= 2
number of green marbles=5
total number of marbles=7
(a) probability that both marbles are blue = pr(first is blue)*pr(second is blue)


(b)probability that both marbles are the same color =pr(first is blue)*pr(second is blue) + Pr(first is green)*Pr(second is green)



(c)Probability that the marbles are different in colors=pr(first is blue)*pr(second is green) + Pr(first is green)*Pr(second is blue)
