The answer is 80.
You would first, divide 120 by 3.
Then, multiply 40 by 2.

3 + 2 = 5 <span>Five parts of a whole

3/5 - cooper
2/5 - zinc

3/5 = 120g  [ * (5/3
3/5 *5/3 = 120g * 5/3
1 (100%) = 600/3g = 200g

200g * 2/5 = 400/5g = 80g zinc</span>

Trevor has two fraction models, each divided into equal-sized sections. The
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

I will answer in a general way because the options are not given.

We know that the area of model A is smaller than the area of model B.

For model A, we have 72 shaded sections, out of 100.

Then the quotient of model A is:

72/100 = 0.72

For model B we have 10 sections, and x shaded ones.

Because model B is greater than model A, we know that:

x/10 should be larger than 72/100

then we have the inequality:

x/10 > 0.72

x > 0.72*10

x > 7.2

And we can not have more than 10 shaded sections (because there is a total of 10 sections) then:

10 ≥ x > 7.2

Then x can be any whole number in that interval.

the possible values of x are:

x = 8

x = 9

x = 10
