9514 1404 393

Answer:

  21

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the given ratio, we can find the ratio of boys to the total.

  boys : (boys +girls) = 7 : (7+8) = 7 : 15

Then the number of boys is ...

  (7/15)(45) = 21

There are 21 boys in the classroom.

A card is chosen at random from a deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that a king or queen is chosen?
Slav-nsk [51]

The answer is B) 2/13.

An easy way to figure this out is to find what the unsimplified probability would be:

Since there are 8 kings and queens in total, the number is:

8/52

But, since these are both even numbers, they can be simplified.

1/4 x 8 = 2

1/4 x 52 = 13

2/13

Since 13 is a prime number, the answer cannot be simplified anymore.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Any numbers to the 2nd powered are always squared. Whenever you are given an exponent, the base is the number that you multiply, and the power is one more than how many times you multiply the base number together. In this case, you multiply five by itself once to get 25 as your answer.
