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.

Radius of a circular ground is 21m. Find.
trapecia [35]

The circumference of a circle of radius r is

C=2\pi r

So, in your case, the circumference is

C=2\cdot \pi \cdot 21 = 42\pi

The circumference is actually the length of the "perimeter", so the answer to questions 1 and 2 looks the same actually

Find the exact area of a circle with a dimeter of 5 yards. Use 3.14 for pi
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

A = 6.25(pi)

A ~ 19.63495

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the area of a circle is;

A = (pi)r^2

Where (A) represents the area of the circle, (pi) represents the value (3.1415...) and (r) represents the radius of the circle. As per its definition, the diameter is the largest cord or line segment that can be drawn through a circle, the diameter always passes through the center of a circle. The radius ( a line segment that can be drawn from the center of the circle to any side of the circle) is always half of the diameter.

This means that the radius for the given circle is (2.5), since (5÷2=2.5)

Substitute these values into the equation and solve for the area of the circle.

A = (pi)r^2\\\\A = (pi)(2.5)^2\\\\A = (pi)6.25\\

A ~ 19.63495

Last year, the local animal shelter found homes for 12,308 dogs and 7,953 cats. What is the total number of dogs and cats the an
Murrr4er [49]
Shelters found for dogs = 12,308
Shelters found for cats  = 7,953

Total number of shelters found
= Shelters found for dogs + Shelters found for cats
= 12,308 + 7,953
= 20,261 shelters

Therefore, the total number of shelter found for both dogs and cats last year is 20,261 shelters
