A lottery game has balls numbered 3 through 17. If a ball is selected at random, what is the probability of obtaining an odd numbered ball or the number 11 ball?

8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The balls are numbered 3 through 17, so there are 17 − 3 + 1 = 15 balls.  8 of them are odd and 7 of them are even.

So the probability of an odd numbered ball (which includes the number 11 ball) is 8/15.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.
