Answer:

9/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Our box contains 10 socks. (6, which are black and 4 which are red)

Probability of picking 1 black sock will be 6/10

Number of ways it can occur / Total number of outcomes.

In this question we pick two socks, one black firstly and another black, in the second turn. When we say AND, it means intersection

P (B₁ ∩ B₂) = 6/10 . 6/10

When the events are independent, the probability of the intersection will be the product of the probabilities,

P (B₁ ∩ B₂) = 36/100 = 9/25

If 3 students make up 10% of the class, how many students are there total in the class?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

30 students

Step-by-step explanation:

3 students = 10% of the class.

x students = 90% of the class.

(If more, less divides. Let x be the subject. Since we know 10% of the class already, we have to find the remaining 90% that is 100% - 10% = 90%.)

x = 90%/ 10% × 3 students. ( the percentage signs cancel out and so do the zero's.)

x= 9/1 × 3 students ( 9/1 is the same as 9)

x= 27 students

(To find the total, you must add the 10% of the students to the remaining 90% of the students in the class.)

Total number of students in the class = 27 students + 3 students

= 30 students
