A pet store has 96 pets in it. Half of the pets are fish. An eighth of the pets are hamsters. An eighth of the pets are dogs. An eighth of the pets are cats. The rest are rabbits. How many rabbits are in the store?

12 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Take long word problems like these step-by-step:

The pet store has 96 pets. Since half are fish, there are 48 fish. If one eighth of the pets are hamsters, there are 12 hamsters

If an eighth of the pets are dogs then there are 12 dogs and if an eighth of the pets are cats then there are also 12 cats. Since the rest are rabbits, we can subtract the amount of non-rabbits from the total (96 pets). There are 48+12+12+12=84 non-rabbits, and therefore 96-84=12 rabbits.

answer:

step-by-step explanation:

here, the total dishes = 10

dishes having meat = 3 ( chicken, meatloaf and hamburger )

thus, the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes = number of dishes having meat / total dishes

=

therefore, the probability of not having meat = 1- the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes

=

=

=

⇒ option b is correct.
