Answer:
1/24
Step-by-step explanation:
We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.
So we multiply 11 by 8, and get 88.Then we multiply 7 by 12, and get 84.
Next we give both terms new denominators -- 12 × 8 = 96.
So now our fractions look like this:
88
/96
-84
/96
Step 2
Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.
88 − 84 = 4
So the answer is:
4
/96
Step 3
Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?
To find out, we try dividing it by 2...
Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:
4
/96
÷ 2 =2
/48
Let's try dividing by 2 again...
Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:
2
/48
÷ 2 =1
/24
Let's try dividing by 2 again...
No good. 2 is larger than 1. So we're done reducing. There you have it! The final answer is:
11
/12
-7
/8=1
/24
In a pack of 52 cards, there are 3 square numbers - 1, 4, and 9.
1 × 1 = 1
2 × 2 = 4
3 × 3 = 9
Answer:
D. We are 95% confident that between about 22% and 28% of ESPN Viewers thought the Eagles would still win the division.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion. The population is made up of ESPN viewers.
The sample proportion is p=0.25.
The standard error of the proportion is:
The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of ESPN viewers is (0.222, 0.278) or (22.2%, 27.8%).
