Convert from fraction to decimal number. To do it you need to divide the numerator by the denominator. Then, you get:

Let be "x" the number of bricks in the bag<em>.</em>
<em> </em>Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following proportion:

Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

Okay if there are 8 teachers and 6 reams of paper you would have to divide 6 by 8 and you would get 0.75
6/8= 0.75
each teacher would get 0.75 (3/4) of a ream of paper
Answer: a loss of 4 cents
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The probability of rolling a sum of 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 is
which earns $2.00
The probability of rolling a sum of 28, 9, 10, 11, or 12 is
which loses $2.00
The probability of rolling a sum of 7 is
which loses $0.25

1/10 = 0.1
0.9 x 0.1 = 0.09
0.09 is your answer
hope this helps
