Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
19) 48 alligators; 7/8 of the alligators were asleep. How many were not asleep?
8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8
48 * 1/8 = 48/8 = 6 alligators were not asleep.
20) 2/3 of the student population participated. 1,500 is the student population of the school. HOw many attended the bike rally?
1500 * 2/3 = 1500*2 / 3= 3000 / 3 = 1000 students attended.
21) 18 times at bat:
Kayla 5/6 of the time = 18 * 5/6 = 18*5 / 6 = 90/6 = 15 hits
Tia 8/9 of the time = 18 * 8/9 = 18*8 / 9 = 144/9 = 16 hits
Tia got more hits.
To determine how much of the wall is blue we first need to find its area. The wall is a rectangle, then its area is the product of its height and length:

Hence, the area of the wall is 140 square ft. To determine how much of the wall is already painted we multiply this by 1/2, then:

Therefore, 70 square ft are blue.
