Answer:
12/13
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes over the total number of outcomes.
Assuming that this is a standard deck of playing cards, there will be 52 cards, and there will be 4 "4" cards.
First, find the number of desired outcomes, and put it over the total number of outcomes.
Out of the total number of outcomes (52), there are 4 outcomes that are not wanted, hence the equation is:
52 - 4 = 48
So out of the 52 possible outcomes, 48 are desired. Set up the fraction and
simplify:
48/52
/4 /4
= 12/13
4+7=11 i.e. The whole.
7/11=28
1/11=4
Goats are 4/11 therefore
4 x 4= Ans
All the animals add up to 44 and if you check w/ 7/11 it is correct.

X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A
STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.
x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms
3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides
3x= 21
divide both sides by 3
x= 7 (# students lower than A)
STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students
=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)
CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24
ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.
Hope this helps! :)
