Two events are said to be complementary when one event occurs if and only if the other does not. The probabilities of two complimentary events add up to 1. For example, rolling a 5 or greater and rolling a 4 or less on a die are complementary events, because a roll is 5 or greater if and only if it is not 4 or less.

Answer:

In probability theory, the complement of any event A is the event [not A], i.e. the event that A does not occur. The event A and its complement [not A] are mutually exclusive and exhaustive.

24 is 16% of what number

Eva8 [605]

Is/of = %/100 plug the numbers in 24/x = 16/100 then cross multiply then you get 2400 = 16x so you get x by itself so you would have to divide by 16. 2400/16 = 16x/16 the 16 on the x side cancel out so you get x = 150 (I used proportions)

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I would assume you want the answer step-by-step:

We can count carefully and read the question again.

It is asking for us to count by tens or add ten to the most recent integer in the pattern.

In that case, we can see that our answer will by 50 + 10 = 60.

Also, note, that this question is not very intellectually challenging! Next time ask a question like "What do they mean when they say this?" If you don't understand the wording.
