A bag of mixed nuts has 14 almonds, 12 cashews, and 18 peanuts. If one nut is selected, what is the probability that a peanut is chosen? Provide the answer as a simplified fraction.

18 / 44 = 9 / 22

There are 44 nuts in the bag, and 18 of them are peanuts. If you simplify the fraction, you get 9/22 chance of getting a peanut.

9 / 22

Step-by-step explanation:

combine 14, 12, and 18

=44

then, divide 18 by 44

then you get 9 / 22

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
