Hana is playing a virtual reality game in which she must toss a disc to land on the largest triangular section of the board. If the disc is equally likely to land anywhere on the board, what is the probability that she will succeed? Explain

Her probability of success is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the area of the entire board

That would be the rectangle of the measure 50 cm by 40 cm

We have the area as the product of this two

That would be 50 * 40 = 2,000 cm^2

Now, the value calculated is the area of the entire possible landing area

Secondly, we need to get the area that counts as a success

that would be the area of the triangle that has a base of 50 cm and a height of 40 cm

The area of this is the product of the two divided by 2

we have this as ;

50 * 40 * 1/2 = 1,000 cm^2

So, her probability of success is simply the area of the triangle divided by the area of the rectangle

= 1000/2000 = 1/2

answer: 48

just remember to use pemdas:

parentheses

expressions

multiplication

division

addition

subtraction

the ratios are reciprocals im positive

step-by-step explanation:

they are all positive numbers so it wouldn't be the other ones
