The answer b-11/20 fluid ounce

Answer: C. 27/31 fluid ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's turn the mixed number into a fraction:

1\frac{1}{30}=\frac{(1*30)+1}{30} =\frac{31}{30}

Then, to solve the problem we can use a simple rule of three:

31/30 ----------3/10

  3  ----------- x

This can be read as: If to make 31/30 fluid ounces of purple you need 3/10 fluid ounces of red, then to make 3 fluid ounces of purple how many fluid ounces of red will you need?

x=\frac{3*\frac{3}{10} }{\frac{31}{30} } =\frac{\frac{9}{10} }{\frac{31}{30} }=\frac{9*30}{10*31}=\frac{270}{310}=\frac{27}{31}

So, to make 3 fluid ounces of purple paint, Isabelle will need 27/31 fluid ounces of red paint.

Can somebody help solve either of these?
Leya [2.2K]
First one:
The circumference of the whole circle is (2π x the radius), 
and 60° is (60/360) = 1/6 of the whole circumference.

Second one:
The area of the whole circle is (π x the radius²), and
the 40° sector is (40/360) = 1/9 of the whole area.

I hope this is enough help.
