Answer:
The probability that he will get a red gumdrop and a piece of butterscotch candy is 2/25
Step-by-step explanation:
The path to find the answer is to find the probability of both things happening and then multiply them. First, there is 1 red gumdrop and 4 green gumdrops in a jar. There are 5 gumdrops total so the probability of choosing a red one is 1/5. Next, there are 2 pieces of butterscotch candy and 3 pieces of cinnamon candy in another jar. There are 5 pieces of candy total so the probability of choosing a piece of butterscotch candy is 2/5. Finally multiply the two probabilities: 1/5 * 2/5 = <u>2/25.</u>
Answer:
2,400,000,000,000
Step-by-step explanation:
2.4 x 10^12 means that the decimal point is moved 12 places to the right (hence the power of 12)
So by moving the decimal point 12 times you get this: 2,400,000,000,000
The reason why there are only 11 zeroes is because the 4 was a decimal place to the right of 2, thus losing a zero.
Question:

and 
- 
because and
- 
because 
Answer:
- because and
Step-by-step explanation:
Two fractions are said to be equal if and only if they give the same value when simplified.
The equivalent of is as explained in the selected option;
First, divide numerator and denominator by 2
Then simplify
2/2 = 1 and 6/2 = 3; So;
Multiply numerator and denominator by 3
Hence, is equivalent to
Decimal 6/10
6/10 ):2
3/5
0,6
