Bag of candy contains 4 strawberry

1 answer:

3 0

There are 9 candies in total, with 5 being orange. Think of it. For the first grab, you have a 5/9 chance of it being orange flavored. Now there are 4 orange flavored candies, and 8 total candies in the bag. Grabbing a second candy, Billy has a 4/8 chance of grabbing an orange flavored candy. So your two fractions are...

5/9, 4/8

Can you combine these two fractions for a final answer?

Answer:

C. 5 goes into 100 twenty times, and 1 times 20 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that when we multiply both numerator and denominator of a fraction by a same number then we obtain an equivalent fraction,

Here, the given fraction,

$\frac{1}{5}$

By the above statement,

$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1\times 20}{5\times 20}=\frac{20}{100}$

Now,

$a\%=\frac{a}{100}$

$\implies \frac{20}{100}=20\%$

Hence,

$\frac{1}{5}=20\%$

Option C is correct.

X is equal 25 degrees. Line ac goes though the parallel lines. So bcd is x. Cdb is 180-50 equals 130. All angles add to 180. 180-130 equals 2X. So x equals 25.
