To solve this, you need to have a common denominator for both terms. In order to get the equivalent fraction with the common denominator, you multiply each fraction by a version of 1. Here, it seems like our least common denominator (or LCD) is 12. Therefore, you multiply 1/4 by 3/3 and you multipy 2/3 by 4/4 to get 3/12 plus 8/12 = 11/12.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that sandwiches are made with either turkey or ham.
Prob for turkey or ham = 1/2
The fruit can be either apple or orange. Hence p(apple) = p(orange) =12
Drinks can be either bottled water or juice
P(water) = P(juice) = 1/2
We find that sandwiches, fruits, and drinks are mutually independent of each other.
Hence the probability you will get an orange and not get juice in your box
Prob (you get an orange and bottled water)
= Prob (orange) *Prob (bottled water) (since the two are independent
= 1/2 (1/2)= 1/4
Hence answer is 0.25
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Two parts of the wheel are 5 and 8. So 2/8 are the parts you don’t wanna land. That leaves 6 parts open. As a fraction this is 6/8. Simplified, it is 3/4.
There’s a 3/4 chance it will not land on 5 or 8
Answer:
5 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
How many whole 8's will fit into 45?
We find that five whole 8's fit into 45.
8*5=40
45-40=5
So, the mixed number is 5 5/8
