Igcse maths october 2018

Hello everyone
There was this probability question the paper 2 variant 1 exam i dont remember it for sure but the general idea was tht a
Survey is carried out 51 people want to visit london while 53 want to go to tokyo
There was a total of 200 people
The question was two people r chosen find the probability that the first person wants to go to london and the
Second person wants to go to tokyo
Is (51/200 X 53/199 )100 correct ?

Another question was 3 to the power of 3x = k to the power of x find k
Is k=27?
Please answer soon i cant get these out of my head and its making it hard to concentrate for the p4 exam this wednesday

for the first one ure correct if it asks u to write as a percentage.. if it doesn't just leave it as a fraction.

for the second, im pretty sure it is unsolvable unless u wrote it wrong. its an equation with two variables but it only gives one equation so it makes no sense.
