Answer: There are 25 ways to select two members.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
S={E,F,G,H,J}
Number of elements = 5
We need to select two members from S allowing the repetition.
We will use "Fundamental theorem of counting":
There are 5 choices for the first member.
There are 5 choices for the second member.
So, Number of ways would be
Hence, there are 25 ways to select two members.
Length of blue cloth is 60 inches , length of gold cloth is 48 inches and length of white cloth is 72 inches.
<u>a.</u>
As, the length of all pieces are equal, so for getting the greatest possible length of the pieces, we need to find <u>GCF(greatest common factor) of 60, 48 and 72. </u>
First we will factor out all three numbers completely......
The common factors are: 2, 2 and 3
Thus the GCF
So, the greatest possible length of the pieces without having any cloth left over will be 12 inches.
<u>b. </u>
For finding the number of pieces for each color cloth, we will just <u>divide the length of each cloth by 12</u>. So...
Number of pieces for blue cloth
Number of pieces for gold cloth and
Number of pieces for white cloth
