Answer: 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

9 total marbles

2 red

so the first time he picks it would be a 2/9 chance of the marble being red

the second time there would be 8 total marbles and 2 red, so it would be a 2/8 or 1/4 chance.

the probability is found by doing 2/9*1/4 which equals 2/36 or 1/18.

Find the quotient: -10/9 divided by -5/7
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

70/45

Step-by-step explanation:

(-10/9) divided by (-5/7)  = (-10/9) / (-5/7)

dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the top fraction by the reciprocal of the bottom one

top fraction = -10/9

bottom fraction = -5/7

reciprocal just means switching the numerator and denominator

reciprocal of bottom fraction = 7 / -5 = -7/5

thus,

(-10/9) / (-5/7) = (-10/9) * reciprocal of (-5/7) = (-10/9) * (-7/5) = 70/45

note that to multiply two fractions, you just multiply the numerators to get your new numerator and do the same thing with the denominators
