Answer:

\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51}  = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and there are 4 suits for each card. Therefore there are 4 twos and 4 tens.

At first we have 52 cards to choose from, and we need to get 1 of the 4 twos, therefore the probability is just

\frac{4}{52}

After we've chosen a two, we need to choose one of the 4 tens. But remember that we're now choosing out of a deck of just 51 cards, since one card was removed. Therefore the probability is

\frac{4}{51}

Now to get the total probability we need to multiply the two probabilities together

\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51}  = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%

What is the reciprocal of 8 8/5 ?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

\frac{5}{48}

Step-by-step explanation:

The reciprocal of a number n is \frac{1}{n}

Given 8 \frac{8}{5}, change to an improper fraction

= \frac{5(8)+8}{5} = \frac{48}{5}, thus

reciprocal = \frac{1}{\frac{48}{5} } = \frac{5}{48}

A boat can travel 40mph in still water. If it travels 126 miles with the current in the same length of time it travels 114 miles
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

rate of the current = 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt

Let c = rate of the current

Rate going downstream = c + 40

Time going downstream = 126/(40 + c)

Rate going up stream =  40 - c

Time going upstream = 114/(40 - c)

Since the times are equal, then

126/(40 + c) = 114/(40 - c)

126(40 - c) = 114(40 + c)

5040 - 126c = 4560 + 114c

   240c  =  480

          c = 2 mph
