Adam and Tom share a sum of money in the ratio 18:17

Digiron [165]

x = total amount split between Adam and Tom.

since we know the total amount split between both in a 18 : 17 ratio is "x", let's divide "x" by (18 + 17) and distribute accordingly to get the amount of each.

$\stackrel{Adam~received}{18\cdot \cfrac{x}{18+17}}\qquad \qquad \stackrel{Tom~received}{17\cdot \cfrac{x}{18+17}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{since we know that Adam got "5" more}}{ \stackrel{Adam}{18\cdot \cfrac{x}{18+17}}~~ = ~~\stackrel{Tom}{17\cdot \cfrac{x}{18+17}~~ + ~~5} }\qquad \implies \qquad \cfrac{18x}{35}~~ + ~~\cfrac{17x}{35}+5$

$\stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{35}}{35\left( \cfrac{18x}{35} \right)~~ = ~~35\left( \cfrac{17x}{35}+5 \right)}\implies 18x~~ = ~~17x+175\implies \boxed{x =175} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{Tom~received}{17\cdot \cfrac{x}{18+17}}\implies \cfrac{17(175)}{35}\implies \blacktriangleright 85 \blacktriangleleft$

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

there are only four suits and an equal number of cards from each suit, which makes 13 hearts, clubs, spades, and diamonds, so the chance for one of them to be chosen is 13/52, which is reduced to 1/4, or 25 percent.
