To find this answer, we must first find the percentage of batteries that are defective. We can do this by dividing 3 by 500.
3 / 500 = 0.006
So our percentage of defective batteries is 0.6%.
Now, to find out how many defective batteries would be in a batch of 12000, we just need to multiply the constant (percentage of defective batteries) by the amount in the new batch.
12000 * 0.006 = 72
In a shipment of 12,000 batteries, 72 will be defective, so the correct answer choice would be B.
Hope that helped =)
Out of 15 marbles, 3 are yellow, which leaves 12 more marbles that are NOT yellow. 12/15 would be your answer
hope this helps
12 - t|3r - 2|
r = -6; t = 3
subtitute:
12 - 3 · |3 · (-6) - 2| = 12 - 3 · |-18 - 2| = 12 - 3 · |-20| = 12 - 3 · 20 = 12 - 60 = -48
Answer: 11/24
Convert 3/8 to 9/24
Convert 1/12 to 2/24
Add them together to get 11/24
