Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To have the best chance of pulling a pair with the same color you should try to get a pair of black socks. There is a 3/5 chance of pulling a black sock so this means for every 5 socks you pull you get 3 black socks or 2 navy socks. Either way you will get a pair of socks with the same color. (Double check to make sure I'm correct)

It took 2/3 of an hour to complete her science homework. It took Bethany 3/4 of the amount of time to do her math homework as he
SOVA2 [1]
We know there are 60 minutes in an hour.  To find 2/3 of an hour we divide 60/3 to find 1/3 and multiply by 2 so:
60/3 = 20
20*2 = 40 minutes (which is 2/3 of an hour) to do science

We do the same thing with the 40 minutes.  To find 1/4 of 40 minutes we divide 40 by 4 and then multiply it by 3 to get 3/4 so:

40/4 = 10
10*3 = 30 minutes

Then subtract the times 40-30 = 10 minutes

It took her 10 more minutes to complete her science homework.

Hope that helps

Sin2x=2sinxcosx, cos2x=1-2sin^2x
sin(2x)+cos(3x)=2sinxcosx+cos(x+2x)
cos(x+2x)=cosx(1-2sin^2(x))-sinx2sinxcosx
sin(2x)+cos(3x)=2sinxcosx(1-sinx)+cosx(1-2sin^2(x))
