Question

A point is chosen randomly on JM. Identify the probability that the point is NOT on JK or KL.

Answer 1

c.4/11

the correct answer

Answer 2

C

Explanation:

4/11

The whole line is 8 + 34 + 24 units long, or 66 units.

Then since we're solving for not JK or JL, we look at the length of LM.

LM is 24 units long so the probability a point will be on LM will be 24/66.

We can simplify this fraction by dividing the top and the bottom by 6, which will result in 4/11.
