Answer:
The answer would be 94.14
The correct answer among the choices provided is the second option. Events A and B are dependent because P(A|B) P(B). And from conditional probability, we have P(A|B) = P(AintersectionB) / P(B).
Therefore, P (AintersectionB) is equal to P(A|B) × P(B).
Ok so this all about subtracting fractions this is what you want to do:
you can change 8 3/4 and 4 2/3 to have the same value and deominator
8 3/4 = 8 9/12(multiply both sides by 3)
4 2/3 = 4 8/12(multiply both sides by 4)
you do this because 12 is divisible by 3 and 4
then, subtract 4 8/12 from 8 9/12 because John is using some of the wood his dad gave him.
then subtract once again, taking 11/2 away from your difference.
again match the deominator of 11/2 to the deominator of your difference which should be 12. another divisible of 12 is 2 and 6.
11/2 = 66/12 = 5 6/12(multiply both the top and bottom by 6)
and start subtracting.
so John should have -1 5/12(?) wood left
The answer is 20 because it is 4 more after 16
