Answer:
Conversion a mixed number 16 3
8
to a improper fraction: 16 3/8 = 16 3
8
= 16 · 8 + 3
8
= 128 + 3
8
= 131
8
To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 16 by the denominator 8. Whole number 16 equally 16 * 8
8
= 128
8
b) Add the answer from previous step 128 to the numerator 3. New numerator is 128 + 3 = 131
c) Write previous answer (new numerator 131) over the denominator 8.
Sixteen and three eighths is one hundred thirty-one eighths
Conversion a mixed number 9 5
8
to a improper fraction: 9 5/8 = 9 5
8
= 9 · 8 + 5
8
= 72 + 5
8
= 77
8
To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 9 by the denominator 8. Whole number 9 equally 9 * 8
8
= 72
8
b) Add the answer from previous step 72 to the numerator 5. New numerator is 72 + 5 = 77
c) Write previous answer (new numerator 77) over the denominator 8.
Nine and five eighths is seventy-seven eighths
Subtract: 131
8
- 77
8
= 131 - 77
8
= 54
8
= 2 · 27
2 · 4
= 27
4
The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(8, 8) = 8. Cancelling by a common factor of 2 gives 27
4
.
In words - one hundred thirty-one eighths minus seventy-seven eighths = twenty-seven quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the error first.
We can do this by subtracting, to find the difference
2.4-1.9 = 0.5
the difference, or error, is 0.5
Now we find a percentage that describes how much more 2.4 is than 1.9
We can create an equation to solve this
2.4 = 1.9 Times x
Now we need to find the value of x
x= 1.2632
now we double check
1.9 Times 1.2632 = 2.4
Now we round to a whole number
1.2632 = 1
To convert a number to a percentage, you need to bring the number over a decimal point.
so 1 becomes .1, or 10 percent
What exactly do you need to find? Does it need simplified?

Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that an insurance policy reimburses a loss with a deductible of 5. That is, if a loss is less than 5, policy will pay zero. If it is more than 5, then the policy will pay (loss - 5).
We have distribution of y as

expected value of the benefit paid under the insurance policy
=
, by linearity property of expectation.

Hence expected value of the benefit paid under the insurance policy
=2-5 =-3
