Answer:

Probability to pick yellow or orange sweet = 3 / 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of yellow sweet = 5

Number of red sweet = 4

Number of green sweet = 8

Number of orange sweet = 4

Number of white sweet = 3

Find:

Probability to pick yellow or orange sweet

Computation:

Total number of sweets = 24 sweets

Probability to pick yellow = 5 / 24

Probability to pick orange = 4 / 24

Probability to pick yellow or orange sweet = 5/24 + 4 / 24

Probability to pick yellow or orange sweet = 9 / 24

Probability to pick yellow or orange sweet = 3 / 8

The length of a rectangle is twice its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm , find its area.
Brut [27]
L = Length
W = Width

L x W = area
Length = 2w

Lets find the width by solving for w.
2w + w = 36 
3w = 36
3w/3 = 36 / 3 
w = 12

So
L = 2 x 12 = 24
W = 12
L X W = area
24 x 12 = 288 cm^2
