Answer:

France = 15, Italy = 14, Korea = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find 3 consecutive integers whose sum is 42, then the highest integer will be France's gold medal count since they won the most, the second highest will be Italy, and the lowest integer will be Korea.

let n be the first/smallest integer, since they are consecutive, the next two integers are n+1 and n+2. Summing these, we get n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 42. Solve to get n = 13, n + 1 = 14, and n + 2 = 15

Answer: 259/260 or 0.99615 (depending on which answer format your teacher wants)

There are 10 numbers in the set {0, 1, 2, ..., 9}. There are 26 letters in the set {A, B, C, ..., Z}. Multiply those values: 10*26 = 260. So there are 260 ways to pick a number followed by a letter. One example is 7P.

There is only one way Matthew can get the correct answer, and there are 260 - 1 = 259 ways to get the wrong answer. We divide 259 over 260 to get the probability of getting the incorrect answer, which is 259/260.

If you need this fraction in decimal form, then use a calculator to find that 259/260 = 0.99615 approximately
