We can simplify across between the 5 and the 50 and also between the 42 and the 3.

To find the area of the walk in Marcus's bedroom, we have to use the formula: A = b * h. However, to multiply these two values, we should first transform them into improper fractions.

8 2/5 : 8 * 5 = 40 + 2 = 42/5

16 2/3 : 16 * 3 = 48 + 2 = 50/3

Now, we can begin to solve the problem.

Area of Wall = base * height

Area = (50/3) * (42/5)

Now, we simply multiply the fractions.

Area = 140 square feet

However, this value represents the area of a whole wall of Marcus's room. To find the area of the 1/2 of the wall that he plans to paint blue, we must multiply this value by 1/2.

140 * 0.5 = 70 square feet


Therefore, Marcus is going to paint 70 square feet of the wall blue.

zysi [14]

Based on the maximum taxable amount for social security in 2009, and the social security tax rate, the social security tax that Larry paid was $7,347.

<h3>How much did Larry pay in social security taxes?</h3>

The total amount paid by Larry as Social security tax can be found as;

= Maximum amount allowable for social security tax x Social security tax rate

The social security tax rate was 6.2% not 62.2%.

The social security tax was therefore:

= 118,500 x 6.2%

= $7,347
