We divide 72/96 which the answer is 0.75 or 75%
In this item, we are tasked to determine the calculation that can be done in order to determine the length or width of the painted mural in each striped area. This can be done by dividing the total length by the number of stripes as shown in the equation below.
Length per stripe = Total length / number of stripes
Length per stripe = 15 yards / 96 stripes
= 0.15625 yard/stripe
56=2(pi)(r)
r=8.9127
pi(8.9127)^2=249.56cm^2
≈245cm^2 (3s.f.)
