The answer is B. Because there are 8 ribbons in all. 1 ribbon is black. so the equation would be 1/8. Assuming you don't draw the black ribbon on the first try, then you would try again. The second time you draw a ribbon you don't put the ribbon you drew back in. That means there are only 7 ribbons the second time. The 1 black ribbon is still in the bag than the equation would be 1/7. Then you add the two together. So it would be 1/8 + 1/7 = 1/15. Remember to only add the bottom numbers. not the top ones unless they are different colors or objects.
Yes, 4/8 and 1/2 are equivalent, because 4/8 reduced to simplest form is 1/2.
Ok, so...what is the question?...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric mean problem...a ratio. The geometric mean is the height of the triangle, 6. To solve:
and cross multiply to solve for x:
3x = 36 so
x = 12
75%. Move the decimal to spots to the left so .78 then divided it by the cost of the movie ticket and that will be the cost of the ticket with the Collin
