Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,

1 quart = 4 cups

1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups

She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,

0.0625 gallons = 1 cup

0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups

This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8

Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16

To make 100 cups of this shade of green,

Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups

Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups

Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups

Answer:

$4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the distributive property to solve this problem. 0.05(50+40) is the total sales tax. 0.05 being the percentage and 50 and 40 being the things we need to distribute 0.05 to. This becomes 2.5+2. This is 4.5.

How do you get the answer for 10 millimeters increased by 30%
tiny-mole [99]
First you have to find what 30% of ten is, and then add it to the 10. So how do you find 30 % of 10? In math...

"of" means ×
"is" means =

30% of 10 is
30 % × 10 =

change 30% to a decimal by dividing by 100 ( move the decimal to the left 2 places)

.30 × 10 = 3

So 30% of ten is 3. Now since we are increasing by 30%, we have to add it to the original value, 10.

3 + 10 = 13

So 10 millimeters increased by 30% is

13 millimeters
