The simplest term while still being a fraction is 3/5.
Answer:
If the coin is fair, then the odds of getting heads or tails should be equal, 12. Then 3 tosses of tails will have a chance of 12⋅12⋅12=18.
The equation for decreasing a price by 20% is
original price x 0.8 = sale price
Here, we can fill in the sale price so
original price x 0.8 = 51.44
This can be rearranged to show:
51.44 ÷ 0.8 = original price
So the original price was $64.30
Answer = B - $64.30
Hey there :)
Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'
5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r
The difference between them = 5r - 2r
* Your equation
5r - 2r
* Solving the equation
= 5r - 2r
= 3r
