So 72 pencils and 24 calculators
so greates number of identical calculators
this means
what is the biggest number that we can divide 72 and 24 by and get a whole number
this is called the GCM or greatest common multipule
to find the GCM, you factor 72 and group the like ones
72=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 3
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3
so the common group is 2 times 2 times 2 times 3 or 24
so the greates number of packs is 24
so pencils
72 divided by 24=72/24=3
3 pencils per pack
24 divided by 24=24/24=1
1 calulator per pack
answer is 3 pencils and 1 calculator per pack
Answer:
5/36
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the outcome that a event will occur
Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome
Since two sided dice are rolled, the total outcome will be expressed as;
Total outcome = 36
Since we are to find the probability that the sum is 8, the values that gives a sum of 8a re;
(2,6)(6,2), (5, 3), (3,5), (4, 4)
The expected outcome = 5
Probability = 5/36
Hence the probability that the sum is 8 is 5/36
The answer is A! Hope you have a nice day <3
