Answer:
There are 9 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
3:5 = x:15
3/5 = x/15
3(15) = 5x
5x = 45
x = 9 adults
3:5 = 9:15
5/6 + 3/6 = 8/6, you divide 6 into 8, and get 1 2/6, you can reduce that to 1 1/3
Sentence: one and one third
P( 1) = 1/6
P(2) = 1/6
Probability of 1 then 2 = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
The answer in simplest form would be 2 and 3 fifths gallons of gas.
A negative exponent is the opposite of a regular exponent so for example, 5 to the power of -3 is 1/125
