X - the number

x+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{8}x=70 \\
\frac{24}{24}x+\frac{8}{24}x+\frac{3}{24}x=70 \\
\frac{35}{24}x=70 \\
x=70 \times \frac{24}{35} \\
x=2 \times 24 \\
x=48

The number is 48.

The shaded sector above covers 1/3 of the circle. If the radius of the circle above is 3 cm, what is the area of the sector in t
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Given:

The shaded sector above covers \dfrac{1}{3} of the circle.

Radius of the circle = 3 cm

To find:

The area of the sector in terms of π.

Solution:

The area of a circle is

A=\pi r^2

Substituting r=3, we get

A=\pi (3)^2

A=9\pi

It is given that the shaded sector above covers \dfrac{1}{3} of the circle.

The area of shaded sector =\dfrac{1}{3}A

                                             =\dfrac{1}{3}(9\pi)

                                             =3\pi

Therefore, the area of shaded sector is 3π sq. cm.
