Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of cotton candy = A

Number of blue cotton candy = 27 cones

Percentage of blue cotton candy = 75%

Therefore, the total number of cotton candy is calculated as:

27/A × 100 = 75%

2700/A = 75

Cross Multiply

75A = 2700

A = 2700/75

A = 36

Therefore, the amount of total cotton candy that we have is 36.

What is ; 3 3/4 - 2 1/5 thanks!
kari74 [83]

Answer:1 11/20 (I think)

Step-by-step explanation: First subtracting 3 - 2 gets you 1. so we keep that aside and do fractions. first, what do 4 and 5 have in common? They both can be turned to 20. 3/4 can be multiplied to 20 4x5(20) so we do 3x5=15 now you have 15/20. Hope this makes sense. now we do 1/5 to ?/20 5x4=20 1x4=4 so 15/20-4/20=11/20 11/20+1= 1 11/20

-Sorry if its too complicated

(undo ur answer if u trusted me before bc I messed up)

(its good now)

Find measure of angle E
ki77a [65]

The measure of ∠E will be equal to 38°.

Given,

m∠BFE = 118° and m∠C = 86°

And BF bisects ∠ABD

From the Property of Linear Pair,

∠AFB + ∠BFE = 180°

=> ∠AFB + 118° = 180°

=> ∠AFB = 62°

Now, we can see that ∠AFB and ∠FBD are equal because they are alternate angles.

And ∠FBD and ∠ABF are equal because BF bisects ∠ABD.

So, In ∆ABF,

∠AFB + ∠ABF + ∠BAF = 180° (because of the angle sum property of a triangle)

=>62° + 62° + ∠BAF = 180°

=>∠BAF = 180° - 124°

=> ∠BAF = 56°

Similarly, in ∆ABE,

∠A +∠C  +∠E = 180°

=> 56° + 86° + ∠E = 180°

=> ∠E = 38°

Therefore, m∠E = 38°.
