Answer:(3/5 times 5/6 = 1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.
According to statement
The number of books (n) is 8
The number of shelves (r) is 5
Now, we find the ways by which the 8 books be placed in 5 distinguishable shelves
From Permutation formula
P(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!
Substitute the values then
P(n,r) = 8! / (8-5)!
P(n,r) = (8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) / (3*2*1)
P(n,r) = 8*7*6*5*4
P(n,r) = 6720
So, there are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.

No, because simplified, 20/28 would be 5/7, not 3/4
21/28 would be equivalent to 3/4 though
-8x+2=-7x+10
-x+2=10
-x=8
x=-8
