In Saint Mary's Elementary School, the percent of students participating in extracurricular activities went up by 28% this year compared to last year. Which fraction is equivalent to 28%? => 100 28 or 7 25 or 18 25 or 7 100..

Teacher asked Jeff to tell the method for solving 11815 ÷ 5 = 2363. He gave the answer as 2363 × 5. Was he correct? => Yes or No..

In a class, there are 15 students with blond hair, 24 students with brown hair, and 19 students with red hair. Which of the following questions about these students could you use probability to solve? => If the teacher picks 1 student at random, what color is that student most l..

Applications - After the elementary study in probability, let us see how we can utilise this basic knowledge in solving problems of different are..

Tensions of attending the classes, examinations and tests. Low IQ feeling. Fear about failure in examination. Fear about low score. Fear and concern about a future career. Misconceptions about teachers. Due to many problems faced during adolescence, the boys an..

. I mean, what does he gain by watching Cartoon Network?" Nothing, say teachers, educationists and parents in unison. And so, TV is outlawed (Tom Cruise allows his children nothing more than 45 minutes of television a week) and the PC a totem. Though it occupies pride of place at both hom..

. Transition State explains the rate of reaction in term of formation of a transition state of reacting molecules. The formation of transition state requires energy of activation. Transition state theory connects kinetic rates with thermodynamic properties of reactants and the transition ..

Orientation Barrier - As noted earlier, the rate of reaction also depends on p, the fraction of collisions that occur with proper orientation. This factor is independent of temperature. Why proper orientation of the reactant molecule is important can be understood from the figure. fig 6.1..
