$\dfrac{first~numerator}{first~denominator} \times \dfrac{second~numerator}{second~denominator} = \dfrac{(first~numerator)\times(second~numerator)}{(first~denominator)\times(second~denominator)}$

$\dfrac{a}{b} \times \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{a \times c}{b \times d}$

$\dfrac{5}{6} \times \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{5 \times 1}{6 \times 2} = \dfrac{5}{12}$

a teacher plans a simulation to estimate the probability that a student will pick a vowel out of a bag of 26 tiles, each with a

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a teacher prepares 26 tiles with 5 vowels numbered 1 and 21 consonants numbered 2.

The probability for drawing vowel = $\frac{5}{26}$

Prob for consonant = $\frac{21}{26}$

If number of trials is atleast 30 we can expect reliable results.

Here the results are recorded for 120 times at random.

Since number of trials is large, we can expect a reliable and accurate results representing the actual probability.

This is because more the number of trials, the less would be the margin of error i.edeviationfrom the expected probability would be minimum

Recycling one glass bottle can save enough energy to power an oven for 7.5 minutes. A glass bottle weighs 500 grams. Glass used

musickatia [10]

This is a units conversion problem: you have time and you want to convert that to money. Any units conversion problem involves multiplication by 1 in various forms. When you are given 7.5 min = 1 bottle = 500g, you know that (500 g)/(7.5 min) = 1 because the numerator and denominator are equal. (Of course, you are aware that 500 g = 0.500 kg.) The idea is to choose the forms of 1 that cause units you don't want to cancel, leaving only the units you do want.

$6\,h\times \dfrac{0.500\,kg}{7.5\,min}\times \dfrac{60\,min}{1\,h}\times \dfrac{5\,p}{1\,kg}\\\\=\dfrac{6\cdot 0.500\cdot 60\cdot 5\,p}{7.5\cdot 1\cdot 1}=120\,p$

The glass for recycling that would save enough energy to power an oven for 6 hours costs 120p.
