Perform the operations and if possible , simplify . 11/12 -1/3 +1/2

13/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

11/12 - 1/3 + 1/2

Put 11/12 - 1/3 + 1/2 over the common denominator 12. 11/12 - 1/3 + 1/2 = 11/12 - 4/12 + 6/12:

11/12 - 4/12 + 6/12

11/12 - 4/12 + 6/12 = (11 - 4 + 6)/12:

(11 - 4 + 6)/12

11 + 6 = 17:

(17 - 4)/12

| 1 | 7

- | | 4

| 1 | 3:

 13/12

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
