No. A probability of an even can not be greater than 1. It’s always in between 0 and 1 inclusive.

Cassie rolls a fair number cube with 6 faces labeled 1 through 6. She rolls the number cube 300 times.Which result is most likel

Leona [35]

There would be no most likely result because every time that she rolls that dice there is a 1/6 chance of getting any given number.

You drive 75 miles and use 3 gallons of gas, at the same ratio, how may miles can you drive with 12 gallons of gas?

umka2103 [35]

When you say "at the same ratio", you mean that you consume the same amount of gas for the same amount of miles.

We know that everytime you drive 75 miles, you use 3 gallons of gas.

Since 12 gallons of gas is four times 3 gallons of gas, if the ratio remains the same, you can drive four times the distance:

You drive 75 miles, and use 3 gallons.

You drive 75 more miles (so you are at $75+75 = 150$ miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use $3+3 = 6$ gallons.

You drive 75 more miles (so you are at $150+75 = 225$ miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use $6+3 = 9$ gallons.

You drive 75 more miles (so you are at $225+75 = 300$ miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use $9+3 = 12$ gallons, and you're done.

Mark and don are planning to sell each of their marble collections at a garage sale. if don has 4 more than 5 times the number o

natita [175]

Mark and Don have to sell 11 and 59 marbles respectively.

Explanation

Lets assume, the number of marbles Mark has is $x$

As, Don has 4 more than 5 times the number of marbles mark has, so the number of marbles Don has $= 5x+ 4$

Question says that the total number of marbles is 70. So, the equation will be...

$x+(5x+4)= 70\\ \\ 6x+4= 70 \\ \\ 6x = 70-4\\ \\ 6x=66 \\ \\ x= \frac{66}{6}= 11$

So, the number of marbles Mark has = 11

and the number of marbles Don has = $(5*11)+4 = 55+4= 59$
