Answer:

216

Step-by-step explanation:

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

___ -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

___ -> 28% (Blue candies)

28% = 0.28

300 x 0.28 = 84

84 = Number of candies that are Blue

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

___ -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

84 -> 28% (Blue candies)

Now:

300 - 84 = 216

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

216 -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

84 -> 28% (blue candies)

216 equals the number of candies that are NOT Blue

A city held a bike parade. 52 bikers rode in the parade, and 8 of them rode a fixed-gear bicycle.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the probability by dividing the number of fixed gear bikers by the total number of bikers in the parade.

Since there are 8 fixed gear bikers and 52 bikers in total, this will be found by dividing 8 by 52.

So, the probability as a fraction is $\frac{8}{52}$

This can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4:

= $\frac{2}{13}$

So, the probability is $\frac{2}{13}$
