Required, the sum of the two numbers that turn up is less than 12

That can be done as n(E)

= { (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6)
(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)
(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)
(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)
(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)
(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5) }

= 35

Hence, required probability = n(E)/n(S) = 35/36.

C) 7/8 & 3/8 D) 7/9 & 9/11
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7/8 & 3/8

Explanation:

Given 0.875 and 0.375

0.875 ::

After decimal point there are 3 digits 875

Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000

0.875 x 10001000 = 8751000 Now, this can be reduced to fraction 78Therefore, 0.875 as fraction = 78

Similarly,

0.375 :: 

After decimal point there are 3 digits 375

Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000

0.375 x 10001000 = 3751000Now, this can be reduced to fraction 38Therefore, 0.375 as fraction = 38

Q:

The ratio of milk to water is 5:4. If two litres of water is added, the ratio becomes 10:9, then find the new amount of water in the mixture.

A) 12 litres B) 14 litres
C) 16 litres D) 17 litres
 
Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

Let initial quantity of milk & water in the mixture are 5x & 4x
2 litres water is added.
Hence,
New quantity of milk & water will be 5x & (4x+2)
ATQ,
5x/(4x+2) = 10/9
x/(4x+2) = 2/9 9x = 8x + 4
x=4
Hence,
New amount of water in the mixture = 4x+2 = (4*4) + 2 = 18 litres.
