What does “compromise” mean? No dictionary meaning!! Please) and example if possible

1 answer:

4 0

A compromise is when two (or more) people make an agreement or solve an argument by both of them giving something up. They don't get 100% of what they want, but it means both people are 50% happy. This is often better than a win-lose situation.

For example- say a brother and sister both really want the last cookie, so instead of fighting over it, they agree to split the cookie in half. They each sort-of get what they wanted.

Veronika [31]

You would need 8 teaspoons of red paint.

To find this, you must find the ratio or red to blue. To do so, you divide 3 and 15 by 3, giving you a 1:5 ratio, (1 red per 5 blue). Then, you find out how many times 5 goes into 40. Since 5 goes into 40 eight times, you multiple 1 by 8. Thus meaning there are 8 teaspoons of red paint.

I hope this helps!
