Will mark brainliest to the correct answer!

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

6/12 = x/8

We are to find the proportion

Cross multiply

12 * x  = 8 * 6

12x = 48

x = 48/12

x = 4

Hencethe value of x is 4

Substitute into the expression to get the proportion

6/12 = 4/8

In its lowest term;

6/12 = 4/8 = 1/2

Hence the required proportion is 1/2

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

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.
