A certain lottery consists of selecting five different numbered balls from numbered 1 to 15 white balls and one from 1 to 14 gold Mega balls. A player wins the jackpot by matching all five numbers drawn from white balls (1 through 15) and matching the number on the gold Mega Ball (1 through 14). What is the probability of winning the jackpot?

1/42,042 or 2.38×10^-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Please kindly check the attached files for explanation

blue marble is 15 times out of 50 = 15/50 reduces to 3/10

landing on tails is 24 out of 50 = 24/50 reduces to 12/25

to find the probability of both multiply together:

3/10 x 12/25 = 3 x 12 / 10 x 25 = 36/250

if you multiplied the numerator and denominator by 10 you get 360/2500.

the answer is 360/2500

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
