Try out 64?? Sorry if the answer is incorrect.... I will try to reccommend your question to other people. :)

Answer 2

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of picking an even numbered domino is {number of even numbered dominoes}/{total number of dominoes}. This means that 3/4 = 48/{total number of dominoes}. You divide both sides by 48 and get : 1/64 = 1/{total number of dominoes}. You find the reciprocal of both sides, and get: 64 = {total number of dominoes}
