Gia got some books from library yesterday she got five books today gia returned three books gia has six books how many books did gia have to begin

Let me assume Gia had total books in starting = x books.

Number of books she got today = 5 books.

Number of books she returned = 3.

Total remaining books = 6 books.

We can setup an equation as

Total books in starting + Number of books she got today - Number of books she returned = Total remaining books .

Therefore,

x +5 -3 =6.

x +2 =6.

Subtracting 2 from both sides, we get

x+2-2=6-2.

x=4.

Therefore, Gia had total 4 books in starting.

3,000,540

step-by-step explanation:

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
