Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Worth of the estate  = $485000

Unknown:

Amount received by each sibling = ?

Solution:

Let the amount received the eldest  = e

                                                 middle  = m

                                                 youngest  = y

                  e  = 3y

                 m = y + 13000

so;

      e + m + y  = 485000

      3y + y + 13000 + y  = 485000

         5y  = 485000 - 13000

         5y  = 472000

           y  = $94400

Eldest  = 3y  = 3 x 94400 = $283200

Middle  = $94400 + $13000 = $107400

Youngest  = $94400

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

31%

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the probability of obtaining 3 or any number in a roll, we divide the number of outcomes with the sample space.

           probability of 3 :    n = 6/64 = 3/32 = 0.09375

           probability of 4 :    n = 14/64 = 7/32 = 0.21875

Since, we use the conjuction "or", we therefore add up these probabilities. 

                     n = 5/16 or 0.3125

Hope this Helps
