Answer:
There are 20 ducklings.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every group of 6 ducks, 5 would be ducklings.
24 / 6 = 4
There are 4 groups of ducks.
5 * 4 = 20
This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4
To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.
I'll use 12
The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12
10/12-3/12 = 7/12
So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.
Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda
A simulation is a mathematical model used to represent a situation.
- A simulation can be a program or a physical test to "simulate" a situation to predict the outcomes.
When we combine two or more simple events we have a compound event
- "Compound" means to combine, like a compound word would be a combination of two words
A Tree Diagram is a diagram that shows all the possible outcomes of an event
- In a tree diagram, each possible outcome "branches" off the main stem, making the final diagram look like a tree with many separating branches.
All the possible outcomes or results is called the sample space
- The outcomes are each different samples, and a sample space is a space that collects each of these samples
When an event is not affected by a previous outcome we have an independent event
- This event is "independent", not affected by other factors, making it an independent event
