@dan815

OpenStudy (dan815):

i r here!

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

:D

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay so its on time

OpenStudy (dan815):

East-West Air 4 60 Air One 3 50 International Air 6 80

OpenStudy (dan815):

4*0.6 = on time east -west air 4*0.6 + 3*0.5 + 6*0.8 = every on time flight 4*0.6/(4*0.6 + 3*0.5 + 6*0.8 ) is on time west air out of all the possible on time flights

OpenStudy (dan815):

same method for the rest

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

I didn't think about it like that ;(

OpenStudy (dan815):

xD its been the same kind of question for the last 3 ones lol

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

but now it makes sense to why you multiplied the number of flights

OpenStudy (dan815):

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

similar one but not the same

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

ive had a long day so it blurs together

OpenStudy (dan815):

OpenStudy (dan815):

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

so for east-west it should be 2.6/8.9

OpenStudy (pulsified333):

OpenStudy (pulsified333):
