OK, so on a fair coin, how many sides are there?

3. anonymous

There are 2

4. anonymous

there are also 20 selections in the closet

5. anonymous

and 5 yellow skirts

6. Astrophysics

The total skirts is 20, and the coin has two sides so you have $\frac{ 5 }{ 20 }$ chances for the skirt and $\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }$ for coin, so multiply them to get total probability.

Nevermind, you let astrophysics help you he has a smart score of 80, So i would go more towards him then me

8. anonymous

5/40

9. Astrophysics

You did good @AJBeare :) Simplify it @kool_22

10. anonymous

2.5/20

11. Astrophysics

simplify it

12. anonymous

find the common denominator

13. anonymous

1.25/10

14. anonymous

keep going

15. anonymous

use a calculator if you have to

16. anonymous

0.625/5

17. anonymous

what is the fraction of the decimal 0.125?

18. Astrophysics

Not quite |dw:1438956431382:dw|

19. anonymous

Great Job astrophysics!

20. anonymous

and great effort kool_22

21. Astrophysics

Haha, you just have to find a common denominator/ factor and simplify it

22. anonymous

oh ok so the answer would be 1/8. Thanks guys!

23. Astrophysics

yup looks good :)

24. anonymous

no prob
