It's very easy to divide 100 into a number because although it might be a decimal, there is no really difficult dividing going on.
100 goes into 247
2 times and then there is .47 remaining. This means 100 cannot be divided equally into this number but it will be a decimal.
Your answer would look like this:
2.47
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- candles melted
--- time to melt
Required
The time since the first was lit
If 1 candle melts in 4 hours, 2 candles will melt in 8 hours.
i.e.
For the 3rd candle that has melted, 4 inches
First, calculate the fraction that melt
The time to melt is:
So, the required time is:
Convert to minutes
Part (a)
There are 7 red out of 7+3 = 10 total
<h3>Answer: 7/10</h3>
==========================================================
Part (b)
We have 3 green out of 10 total
<h3>Answer: 3/10</h3>
==========================================================
Part (c)
3/10 is the probability of getting green on any selection. This is because we put the first selection back (or it is replaced with an identical copy)
So (3/10)*(3/10) = 9/100 is the probability of getting two green in a row.
<h3>Answer: 9/100</h3>
==========================================================
Part (d)
Similar to part (c) we have 7/10 as the probability of getting red on each independent selection.
(7/10)*(7/10) = 49/100
<h3>Answer: 49/100</h3>
==========================================================
Part (e)
7/10 is the probability of getting red and 3/10 is the probability of getting green. Each selection is independent of any others.
(7/10)*(3/10) = 21/100
<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>
==========================================================
Part (f)
We have the exact same set up as part (e). Notice how (7/10)*(3/10) is the same as (3/10)*(7/10).
<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
The washer costs $624 and the dryer costs 312.
624 is double 312 so that works out. Also if you add 624 and 312 you get 936.
