Problem 1
Answer: Closer to 1
Explanation:
There are 20 gumballs total. Half of this is 20/2 = 10 gumballs. If there's more than 10 of one color, then the probability of getting that color is closer to 1, than it is to 0. Here we have 12 pink which is greater than 10, so that's why the answer is closer to 1.
================================================
Problem 2
Answer: Closer to 0
Explanation:
The amount of green (3) is less than 10, so that's why the probability is closer to 0 than it is to 1. We can see that 3/20 = 0.15 is less than 0.50
================================================
Problem 3
Answer: Closer to 0
Explanation:
We have a similar situation compared to problem 2. This time we have 5/20 = 0.25 which is less than 0.50
================================================
Problem 4
Answer: 48% chance; fairly likely
Explanation:
We have 12 green out of 25 total, so the probability of choosing green is 12/25 = 0.48 = 48%. While this probability is not over 50%, I still say it's fairly likely considering the other colors lead to smaller probabilities. For instance, purple has a chance of 6/25 = 0.24 = 24% and orange has a probability of 2/25 = 0.04 = 4%, both of which are smaller than 48%
Ashley should get her seeds at garden place as she gets the exact amount of seeds and spends the least amount of money.
first of all I divided 75 by the amount of seeds you get it a packet. then if that was a decimal I rounded it to the larger number (eg. 7.15 rounded to 8)
then I multiplied the cost by that number to get the amount of money itd cost.
so I got in order of the boxes(s=seeds)
75s=$18
80s=$18.4
84s=$21.84
80s=$20
so the best deal is Garden place
Answer:
0.38
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we convert the fraction to a decimal number by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
3 / 8 = 0.375
There are two parts to the decimal number above:
Integer Part: 0
Fractional Part: 375
Now, we will make the Fractional Part just two digits (nearest hundredth) by using our rounding rules.*
In this case, Rule II applies, so 3/8 (or 0.375) rounded to the nearest hundredth in decimal format is:
0.38
