If a coin is flipped once, which outcome is more likely, heads or tails? Explain your answer. The outcomes are equally likely. The probability of each is \(\frac{1}{2}\).

Replace each circle with the proper comparison symbol: \[ \frac{8}{10} \circ \frac{15}{15} \]

Replace each circle with the proper comparison symbol: \[ \frac{5}{8} \circ \frac{12}{5} \]

Use an inch ruler to find \(AB\), \(CB\), and \(CA\) to the nearest sixteenth of an inch. \[ AB = 1 \frac{3}{8} \text{ in.}; \, CB = 1 \frac{3}{8} \text{ in.}; \, CA = 2 \frac{3}{4} \text{ in.} \]

Write each number as a reduced fraction or mixed number: \[ \text{a. } 12 \quad \frac{2}{3} \]

Write each number as a reduced fraction or mixed number: \[ \text{b. } 40\% \quad \frac{2}{5} \]

Write each number as a reduced fraction or mixed number: \[ \text{c. } \frac{10}{12} \quad \frac{5}{6} \]
