A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}. Find the probability of rolling

Answer: 1/12</h3>
This is because there's one side we want (that's labeled "8") out of 12 sides total. This is of course if each side is equally likely.
Side note: this 12-sided die is known as a dodecahedron.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Billy's Marble = x
Required
Determine a,b and c
a. Charlie's Marble
"5 more" means 5 + or + 5
Since Billy's Marble is represented with x, then Charlie's Marbles will be
b. Danny's Marbles
Having "8 fewer" means we have to subtract 8 from Billy's marble;
Since Billy's Marble is represented with x, then Danny's Marbles will be
c. Eric Marbles
Having "three times as " means we have to multiply Bill's marble by 3;
Since Billy's Marble is represented with x, then Danny's Marbles will be
24 x 30 = 720 sq. ft
36 x 108= 3888 sq. inches
3888 inches divided by 12 inches= 324 ft.
720 ft - 324 ft. = 396 ft is the yard only without the garden
I see two ways to do it.
First, you have to understand that when you see a 'complex fraction' like this, the top number is a numerator, and the two bottom numbers are both denominators.
Way-1:
Take the top fraction . . . 2/2 . That's equal to 1 . So the whole thing is <em>1/3</em>.
Way-2:
Multiply the bottom two denominators. Then the whole thing is 2/(2·3) . That's the same thing as 2/6 . Simplify that, and you have <em>1/3</em> .
5 to 10 is just one of many examples. Hope this helps :)
