Answer:

Probability that all winner are men = 0.0035 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of women = 50

Number of men = 26

Total number winner = 5

Find:

Probability that all winner are men

Computation:

Total competitor = 50 + 26 = 76

Probability that all winner are men = 26/76 x 25/75 x 24/74 x 23/73 x 22/72

Probability that all winner are men = 7,893,600 / 2,216,980,800

Probability that all winner are men = 0.0035 (Approx.)

<span>Let us first find a ratio between the quantity of work done by Darnell and Julius. If Darnell does one part of the work, Julius does two parts of the work. That is, their work quantity ratio is 1:2. (Total 3 parts) In other words when Darnell does 1/3 of the work, Julius does 2/3 of the work. When they work together, the work is completed in 4 hours. 4 hours work is the combined output of 1/3 by Darnell and 2/3 by Julius. If Julius was not there, Darnell would have to work for more than 4 hours. We already know that Darnell does only 1/3 of a work during any given time. If the given time is 4 hours, how many one-thirds will Darnell require? To find the answer, divide the given number (4 hours in this case) by the given fraction( 1/3 in this case) To divide a number by a fraction, multiply the number by the reciprocal of the fraction. Thus it becomes 4 divided by 1/3 = 4 x 3/1 = 12. (Another hint: At the rate of 1/3 of a work in one hour, Darnell will needs 3 hours to complete the given task. If the given work is 4 hours long, Darnell will take 4 x 3 hours, that is 12 hours.)</span>

Jordan needs one can of juice to make 24 servings of a punch. How many servings of punch can she make with 1/2 a can of juice?
kati45 [8]
Compare the two sets of numbers with a ratio. 1 can for 24 servings is to 1/2 can for x servings.

x= # servings from 1/2 can


1/24= (1/2)/x
cross multiply

1 * x= 24 * 1/2

x= 24/2

x= 12 servings


ANSWER: She can make 12 servings from 1/2 can of juice.

Hope this helps! :)
