Since its out of 15 marbles all together and all you need to find is the probability of 3 blue marbles you would have to divide 3 by 15. The outcome would be 0.2 or in your case... B. - 0.20
171/3 is 57. the three consecutive numbers are 56, 57 and 58.
244/4 is 61. the even integers are 58, 60, 62 and 64
The line segment HI has length 3<em>x</em> - 5, and IJ has length <em>x</em> - 1.
We're told that HJ has length 7<em>x</em> - 27.
The segment HJ is made up by connecting the segments HI and IJ, so the length of HJ is equal to the sum of the lengths of HI and IJ.
This means we have
7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> - 5) + (<em>x</em> - 1)
Solve for <em>x</em> :
7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> + <em>x</em>) + (-5 - 1)
7<em>x</em> - 27 = 4<em>x</em> - 6
7<em>x</em> - 4<em>x</em> = 27 - 6
3<em>x</em> = 21
<em>x</em> = 21/3
<em>x</em> = 7
