You can tell right away 5/6 isnt the smallest then 1/3 is smaller than 3/7 so that leaves 2 answers since 1/3 of 14 is 4 . 666666 so 1/3 is the smallest

To find which one is the smallest, we must first give the fractions a common denominator. That number happens to be 42. Rewriting the fractions results in:

<span>3/7 becomes 18/42
1/3 becomes 14/42
5/6 becomes 35/42
9/14 becomes 27/42
</span>
When placed in this format, we can see that 1/3 is in fact the smallest. Hope this helps :)

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 108 degrees and a diameter of 21.2 cm?

Rasek [7]

Answer:

$105.84\ cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the circle

The area of the circle is

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=21.2/2=10.6\ cm$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

$A=\pi (10.6)^{2}$

$A=112.36\pi\ cm^2$

step 2

Find the area of a sector

Remember that

The area of the circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector with a central angle of 108 degrees

$\frac{112.36\pi}{360^o}=\frac{x}{108^o}\\\\x=112.36\pi(108)/360\\\\x=33.708\pi\ cm^2$

assume

$\pi=3.14$

substitute

$33.708(3.14)=105.84\ cm^2$

In a statistics class there are 18 juniors and 10 seniors; 6 of the seniors are females and 12 of the juniors are males. If a st

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

P(a junior or a senior)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the probability is given by:

$P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{N}$

Where P(A) is the probability of occurring an event A, n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes and N is the total number of outcomes.

In this case, N is the total number of the students of statistics class.

N=18+10=28

The probability of the union of two mutually exclusive events is given by:

$P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)$

Therefore:

P(a junior or a senior) =P(a junior)+P(a senior)

Because a student is a junior or a senior, not both.

n(a junior)=18

n(a senior)=10

P(a junior)=18/28

P(a senior) = 10/28

P(a junior or a senior) = 18/28 + 10/28

Solving the sum of the fractions:

P(a junior or a senior) = 28/28 = 1

What does proportional mean?

skad [1K]

In mathematics, two variables are proportional if a change in one is always accompanied by a change in the other, and if the changes are always related by use of a constant multiplier. The constant is called the coefficient of proportionality or proportionality constant.
