The question also states that Lucy has a winning probability of 1/50, which means that she has 1 chance of winning if the total runners were 50. Therefore, there are 49 runners who may be faster than her.
The fact that Lucy is the 50th slowest runner, means that starting from the slowest she is in 50th position, therefore there are 49 runners that are slower than her.
The total number of runners will be the sum of those faster than Lucy, those slower than Lucy and Lucy:
49 + 49 + 1 = 99
There are 99 runners in Lucy's school.
Logan is 125 meters away from the treasure.
Also, this question seems like an elementary school question, not a high school question, so why does it say that you are in high school?
Answer: The area of a sector is a fraction of the area of the circle. The fraction is equal to the ratio of the measure of the sector’s central angle to one full rotation, or 360°.

Answer:
D. $16.42
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the sales tax of a product, you need to multiply the product's price by the sales tax in decimal form.
To find the decimal form of a percentage, you simply move the decimal paint two spaces to the left. So, 8.25% in decimal form is 0.0825.
199.99 * 0.0825 = 16.499175
This number is closest to $16.42, so D is the correct answer.
Simon is 13 years old
Let x be Simon's age
Thus 4 years ago his age was (x - 4) and 2 years from now his age is (x + 2)
Hence 5(x - 4) = 3(x + 2)
distributing both sides gives
5x-20 = 3x + 6
subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
5x - 3x - 20 = 6
2x - 20 = 6
add 20 to both sides
2x = 6 + 20 = 26
divide both sides by 2
x = 
= 13
Simon is 13 years old
