Answer 3

how did u get that

Answer 4

okay... well think about it this way.. the differ sections are:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10

now... 5 of those are great than or equal to 6:
6,7,8,9,10

so if there are ten sections and 5 of them work.. that 1/2 or 50%

but she needs to get that twice... so you take 1/2 and multiply it by 1/2
which is 1/4 or 25%

Answer 5

thank u so much
