Of the cars in a used car lot 2/5 are the color gray 1/3 of the gray cars are electric fully powered vehicle. What fraction of the cars on the lot are both gray and electronically powered leave your answer in simplified fraction form.
To solve this problem, we can multiply the fractions: 2/5 * 1/3 = (2*1)/(5*3) = 2/15.
Therefore, 2/15 of the cars on the lot are both gray and electric powered.
To find the fraction of cars on the lot that are both gray and electronically powered, we need to multiply the fractions representing each condition.
The fraction of cars that are gray is 2/5.
The fraction of gray cars that are electric fully powered is 1/3.
To find the fraction that meets both conditions, we multiply (2/5) * (1/3):
(2/5) * (1/3) = 2/15
Therefore, 2/15 of the cars on the lot are both gray and electronically powered.
To find the fraction of cars on the lot that are both gray and electric, we need to multiply the fractions that represent the probability of each condition separately.
First, let's find the fraction of cars on the lot that are gray. We know that 2/5 of the cars are gray.
Next, let's find the fraction of gray cars that are electric. We are told that 1/3 of the gray cars are electric.
To find the fraction that satisfy both conditions, we'll multiply the two fractions: (2/5) * (1/3).
To multiply fractions, we simply multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
(2/5) * (1/3) = (2 * 1) / (5 * 3) = 2/15.
Therefore, 2/15 of the cars on the lot are both gray and electric.
