Correct answers are:
1) 1/3 (NOT 3/10). .3 repeating is not 3/10, 3/10 is .3.
2) 1/8. To solve, .125 has three places, so use 1000. 1000/125 is 8, that is your denominator. 125/125 is 1 is your numerator.
3) 1/6 (divide 100/16, which is 6 ¼ - round to 6. If you carry this out to 1,000,000/166,667, it is very close to 6.
4) 1/10
5) 2/3 (NOT 3/5)
6) 1/5 (2/10 reduced to 1/5)
7) 3/4 (75/100 reduced)

Answer:
6x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
you multiply 2*3x=6x then 4*2=8
therefore 6x-8=(3x-4)2
Answer:
Probability that Caroline buys fruit, a CD or both is 0.76.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let event A = Caroline buys fruit, event B = Caroline buys CD, Ac and Bc are complementary events.
Events AB, ABc, AcB and AcBc are jointly exhaustive and disjoint, hence P(AB) + P(ABc) + P(AcB) +P(AcBc) =1.
Events A and B independent, hence Ac and Bc independent too and probability P(AcBc) = P(Ac)*P(Bc) = (1 - P(A))(1-P(B)) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24.
Required probability P(AB + ABc + AcB ) = P(AB) + P(ABc) + P(AcB) = 1- P(AcBc) = 1 - 0.24 = 0.76.
