This is how I would do it;
Convert to minutes 3/5 *60 = 36
Convert this to decimal 2/5 = 0.4
Then;
if it takes 36 mnts to paint 0.4yd^
in 60 mnts x yd^
___________________
60 x 0.4 / 36 = 0.66666667
convert back to fraction = 2/3 yd^ in 1hr
Do determine the probability of two events occurring in sequence, multiply the probability of each event against the other.
There's a 1 in 6 chance of rolling a 3 on a 6-sided number cube; there's a 5 in 6 chance of rolling not-a-3 on a 6-sided number cube; thus, the chance of rolling a 3 that is immediately followed by a not-3 is:
(1/6) times (5/6) = (5/36)
You just need to know how much 10% is and then you just divided what 10% is and that will be equal to 5% and then you just add the 10 % and 5%
There are no factors.

Answer:
9419.3 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial amount of C-14 be 100 units.
We have been given that a hiker in Africa discovers a skull that contains 32% of its original amount of C-14. We are asked to find the age of the skull.
We will use half life formula to solve our given problem.
, where,
A = Amount left after t years,
a = Initial amount,
t = time,
h = Half life.
We know that half-life of C-14 is 5730 years.
32% of 100 units would be 32.



Now, we will take natural log of both sides.

Using log property
, we will get:




Therefore, the age of skull is approximately 9419.3 years.
