9. Jose bought 7 packets of tomato seeds. Each packet contained 20
seeds. She planted 1 packet of the seeds, and 12 seeds sprouted.
What is the probability that the seeds in the remaining packets will
sprout?

analyaze problem

7 packets of 20, so

7*20=140

if in 20 seeds, 12 sprouts then

12/20

simplify

3/5

make a percentage

times twenty on both top and bottom

60/100

so sixty percent
