Given that the metal strip is being installed around a bench that 6ft long 2ft wide. The metal required will be given by:
P=4(L+W)
=4(6+2)
=4(8)
=32 ft
Therefore we conclude that we need a metal strip that is 32ft long

A box contains 4 oranges, 9 apples, and 3 pears. Liliana selects a piece of fruit from the box at random. What is the probabilit

valina [46]

Hello!

You first find out how many objects there are in total

4 + 9 + 3 = 16

Then you find the probability of Liliana picking a orange

Since there are 4 oranges and 16 things to pick she has a 4/16 chance of getting an orange

Next you find the probability of Liliana picking a pear

There are 3 pears and 16 items to pick so she has a 3/16 chance

Then you add them together to find the chance of either happening

4/16 + 3/16 = 7/16

So she has a 7 out of 16 chance of getting an orange or a pear

The answer is 7/16

Hope this helps!
