While in the library, 44 students checked out animal books, 28 students checked out mystery books, and twice as many students who checked out mystery books checked out joke books. Which of the following is a good estimation of the total number of books checked out?

128

Step-by-step explanation:

44+28+(28x2)=128

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
