I saw this on a test and got it wrong. May I please know how to work it out and what the correct answer is?
Thank you (* is a multiplication symbol) Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You are multiplying, so you don't need a common factor:
(99/100)*(80/81)*(63/64)*(48/49)*(35/36)*(24/25)*(15/16)*(8/9)*(3/4)
= (99*80*63*48*35*24*15*8*3)/(100*81*64*49*36*25*16*9*4) = 11/20
