Question 408582: The theoretical probability of undesirable side effects resulting from taking Grebex is 3 in 11. If 110 people take Grebex to lower their blood pressure how many will encounter undesirable side effects? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The theoretical probability of undesirable side effects resulting from taking Grebex is 3 in 11. If 110 people take Grebex to lower their blood pressure how many will encounter undesirable side effects?

3 in 11 is the same as 3x in 11x where 3x is # with unde. side effects.
-----
Equation 3x + 11x = 110
14x = 110
x = 110/14
----
# of 110 = 3x= 3(110/14) = 23.57
---
Round up to # = 24
