Answer:


\frac{1}{5}


Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Six out of every 10 tickets are winning tickets.

            Of the winning tickets, 1 out of every three awards is a larger prize.

Solution :

Since 10 tickets are drawn

Out of 10 ,  6 tickets are wining

All six will get awards

Out of three awards 1 is a larger pize and total there are six awards

So, out of six awards there are 2 larger awards

Thus out of 10 tickets there are 2 larger awards


⇒\frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}


Thus,  The probability that a ticket that is randomly chosen will award a larger prize is

Rom4ik [11]

Question:

You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?

Answer: 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x

First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)

Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)

If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish

Then,

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish

Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish

1/ 10 of 40

= ( 1/10) × 40

= 4 miles

kirill115 [55]
Draw a simple branch diagram to work the probabilities out. You find that the chance of a poisonous mushroom is 0.08 and the chance of a red poisonous is 0.04. So the probability that a poisonous mushroom is red is 1/2 or 0.5.
