4 / 5 - 2 / 3 ( taking LCM on bottom )
= ( 12 - 10 ) / 15
= 2 / 15 Ans
Just divide 100% by 80% and multiply that answer by 5. I'm pretty sure that's how you do it.
To find the area of a rectangle, you times the length and width together.
So in this case,
5/8 x 2/3 = 10/24.
This can be simplified to 5/12
Answer: 0.3125.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The chance of having a boy is 0.5,
- the chance of having a girl is also 0.5.
<u>Outcome 1: all boys</u>
boy boy boy boy
0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
<u>Outcome 2: first child is a girl, all others are boys</u>
girl boy boy boy
0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
<u>Outcome 3: second child is a girl, all others are boys</u>
boy girl boy boy
0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
<u>Outcome 4: third child is a girl, all others are boys</u>
boy boy girl boy
0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
<u>Outcome 5: fourth child is a girl, all others are boys</u>
boy boy boy girl
0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
Therefore,
0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 = 0.0625 * 5 = 0.3125
