Response:


Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming there are 100 sour candies, thus-  

since 26% of the candies are grape, it follows that 26% of 100 candies means we have 26 grape candies

Consequently, the remaining candies that are not grape amount to 100-26 = 74

Applying the multiplication principle:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A)/ P(B|A)  

 Initially, there are 26 grape candies, therefore the probability of selecting the first grape candy =  26C1 = 26

 After choosing the first one, we put the selected grape candy back, so there are still 100 candies total P(B|A) = 100C3 = 100 x 99 x 98 x 97!/3! X 97!

= 50 x 33 x 98

Thus, the probability becomes 1/ 50 x 33 x 98 x 26

= 1/4204200

AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

13 Millilitres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yoku applies 2ml to cover 50cm^2 of his skin.

He seeks to find out how many millilitres he needs to cover 325cm^2 of his body.

With 2ml, Yoku covers 50cm^2 of his skin

He will use \frac{2}{50}ml of sunscreen for covering 1cm^2 of his skin.

Thus:

For covering 325cm^2 of his body, he will require:

\frac{2}{50} X 325 ml\\=13ml

he would need 13 Millilitres.

Yao Xin puts 3/10 liters of potting soil in each pot for planting flowers. She has 17/3 liters of potting soil. How many pots ca
babunello [11817]

In this scenario, we'll define the following variables:

x: total volume of potting soil in liters.

y: quantity of potting soil allocated to each pot in liters.

To determine the number of pots, we can use the expression:

N = \frac{x}{y}

Substituting in the respective values yields:

N = \frac{\frac{17}{3}}{\frac{3}{10}}

Reformatting gives us:

N = \frac{170}{9}

N = 18.8

When rounding down to the nearest whole number, we find:

N = 18

The conclusion is:

Yao Xin is capable of filling 18 pots.

tester [12383]

Divide 1006 by 12

1006 / 12 = 83.833

This results in 83 complete trucks

83 * 12 = 996

Hence, 10 cars will be in the final truck

You have two kinds of data $ and %!
Align them properly and perform cross multiplication.

16% corresponds to $38 as
100% corresponds to $x

Following this, x = (38*100)/16 = $237.5, which is the original price before the discount.
