Answer: 0.62
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A recent Harris Poll survey of 1010 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige.
i.e. The sample size of U.S. adults : n= 1010
The number of U.S. adults consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige : x= 627
Now , the probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige will be :
[ To the nearest hundredth]
Hence, the estimated probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige = 0.62
Answer:The amount of paint that was sold altogether is 173.36 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount of paint that the paint shop stocks is 1800 litres.
24% of the paint is white. It means that the amount of white paint would be
24/100 × 1800 = 0.24 × 1800 = 432 litres.
The amount of the remaining paint other than white would be
1800 - 432 = 1368 litres
The shops sells 18% of the white paint. This means that the amount of white paint sold by the shop will be
18/100 × 432 = 0.18 × 432 = 77.6 litres.
The shops sells 7% of the rest of the paint.
This means that the amount of the rest paint sold by the shop will be
7/100 × 1368 = 0.07 × 1368 = 95.76 litres.
The amount of paint that was sold altogether would be
77.6 + 95.76 = 173.36 litres
