Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
They could have assembled total 336 different possible crews.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Total number of trained pilots is 9 and geologists is 4.
The crew should be consisted of 2 pilots and 1 geologist. That means, <u>2 pilots are chosen from total 9 and 1 geologist is chosen from total 4</u>.
Number of ways for choosing 2 pilots from 9
and
Number of ways for choosing 1 geologist from 4 
So, the total possible number of different crews they could have assembled 
Answer:
a*b = 1/2
a/ b = 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 0.66666 and b = 0.75
To multiply it we write the decimal numbers in fraction form
a= 0.666666...
Multiply by 10 on both sides
10 a = 6.66666...
a = 0.66666...
Subtract the second equation
9a = 6
divide by 9 on both sides

so 0.6666 = 2/3
Now we convert 0.75 into fraction form

Multiply top and bottom by 100 to remove decimal

so 0.75 is 3/4
a= 2/3 and b = 3/4
