Answer:

36.36% probability that she gave birth to quadruplets

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcoes.

Desired outcomes:

Giving births to quadruplets.

She has 4 sets of quadruplets.

So D = 4

Total outcomes:

At least 3 children(triplets).

7 sets of triplets and 4 sets of quadruplets.

So T = 7 + 4 = 11

Probability:

p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{4}{11} = 0.3636

36.36% probability that she gave birth to quadruplets

Plz help! i rlly need this question !
Mazyrski [523]

answer: she is right that y = 29, but step three should be addition property of equality.

work: let's see how she worked to isolate y. she started by subtracting 2y from both sides, so so far she is correct. after that, she added 84 to both sides, and again that is a correct step, but her proof is wrong, since you are adding and not subtracting 84, it's the addition property of equality. lastly, she divided 145 by  and correctly got 29. so yes, she is correct.

Mr Razali sold a laptop to Mr Azmi and earned a profit of 20%.Then,Mr Azmi sold the laptop to Shahid with the price RM 2400,whic
Black_prince [1.1K]
The original price when Mr. Razali bought the laptop was $2500

Working backwards to solve the problem

If Mr. Azmi lost 20% when he sold the laptop for 2400, that means that he sold it for 80% of what he paid. If 2400 is 80% of what he paid, then to find out what he paid for it you would use this equation to determine what 100% would be:

\frac{2400}{x}  =  \frac{80}{100}
cross multiply to get:
240000 = 80x
3000 = x
Mr. Azmi bought the laptop for $3000

Mr. Razali sold the laptop for a profit of 20%, which means he sold it for 120% of what he paid for it. To determine how much he bought it for we would use this equation:
\frac{3000}{x}  =  \frac{120}{100}
cross multiply to get:
120x = 300000
x = 2500
Mr. Razali initially bought the laptop for $2500

A shop sells boxes of chocolate. In total there are 252 dark chocolate and 180 milk chocolates.if every box is identical,how man
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

12 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the greatest common factor of 251 and 180:

First find the prime factors :

252 = 2*2*3*3*7

180 =  2*2*3*3*5

So the GCF = 2*2*3*3 = 36.

So id each box is identical, there could be 7 boxes of dark chocolates and 5 boxes of milk chocolates each containing 36 chocolates.

Total number of boxes = 12.
