The answer is 125. Hope it helps you
My best guess is to go with C, sorry if its wrong!
edit: just realized this said red and blue, my bad!
To convert inches to yards you would divide the number of inches by inches per yard.
The numerator would be the inches given and the denominator would be 36
The ratio would be inches / inches per yard.
Numerator = inches
100 lbs = 1 lb of melon 99 lb water
Let "x" be weight of water:
percentage = weight of water / (1 lb melon + water)
.98 = x / (1 lb melon + x)
.98 = x / 1 +x
.98 + .98x = x
.98 = .02x
x = 49
49 lbs of water
1 lb melon + 49 lbs water = 50 lbs total
49 / 50 = 98%
Therefore, 50 POUNDS of water evaporated
