Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Kaylee used the amount of green paint in the mixture = x ounces
and the amount of white paint = y ounces
Total amount of mixture = 50 ounces
Equation will be x + y = 50 ------(1)
Ratio of green paint to the white paint in the mixture = 5 : 3
⇒ x : y = 5 : 3
⇒
⇒ x = ---------(2)
Therefore, By solving these two equations by substitution method we can get the amount of green and white paint used in the mixture.
Answer:
2 7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
So Lets put these into a fraction form
Petra: 5 3/5
Pauline: 3 4/16 -> Can be Simplified = 3 1/4
Take the number of pies Petra Ate and subtract it by the number of pies Pauline ate
Change the numbers to a common factor. (multiply 3/5 by 4 and 1/4 by 5 to have common denominators)
Make These Into a Mixed Fraction
Subtract 112-65
Simplify (divide 47 into 20 how many times to get into a mixed fraction)
I think this is right. Hope This Helps
