When multiplying fractions you multiply the denominators by the denominators and the numerators by the numerators
For example
4/5x 2/3
8/15

Of course!

First, you'll need to line up both of your fractions, there's no need to have common denominators because you'll be multiplying straight across.

Next, multiply both numerators together straight across, then denominators.

4·2= 8

5·3= 15

Most fractions will need simplified after you've multiplied your fractions, but your product (8/15) doesn't need simplified since there's no common factors with 8 and 15, or a relationship.

Answer: 8 / 15

A frequency distribution for the class level of students in an introductory statistics course is shown. Two students are randoml

Andrews [41]

Answer: $\dfrac{21}{410}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : Probability = $\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

From the given frequency distribution for the class level of students in an introductory statistics course, we have

Number of Junior= 12

Number of Senior = 7

Total students = 6+16+12+7 = 41

Probability that the first student obtained is a junior = $\dfrac{12}{41}$

Probability that the the second student obtained is a senior. $=\dfrac{7}{41-1}=\dfrac{7}{40}$

Then, the probability that the first student obtained is a junior and the second a senior would be $\dfrac{12}{41}\times\dfrac{7}{40}=\dfrac{21}{410}$

Hence, the required probability is $\dfrac{21}{410}$ .
