Cards numbered 1 through 30 are placed in a bag and shuffled. One card is chosen at random. What is the probability of randomly selecting a number less than or equal to 5, or a multiple of 7? https://www.dropbox.com/s/n43kflbepqbgbdm/Screenshot%202015-06-16%2018.54.18.png?dl=0

@jim_thompson5910 @mathstudent55 could you help me with math please? :)

HI!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

count !

OpenStudy (misty1212):

how many numbers are less than or equal to five? (don't think too hard for this one)

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Hello! I think 1 2 3 4 5

OpenStudy (misty1212):

those are the numbers, the question is "how many" of them are there?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

oh, 5

OpenStudy (misty1212):

right

OpenStudy (misty1212):

now how many multiples of 7 are less than 30?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

4

OpenStudy (misty1212):

ok good, so how many total?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

9

OpenStudy (misty1212):

right

OpenStudy (misty1212):

9 out of 30 total is your answer, or as a fraction \[\frac{9}{30}\] which you probably want to reduce

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

so then 3/10 ?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yes

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

:D Yay! Which would be A Thank you so much!
