b. including facts and details about the topic.
The excerpt does not reveal why the fans are screaming racial insults or why the fans begin to feel the heat. This eliminates option A as a possibility. Option C is also wrong because the excerpt does not speak to the reader and convince the reader to believe one way or another on an issue. Option D is also wrong because the author does not include his or her own opinion about the topic. Option C is correct because in this excerpt the author is simply reporting the events and the emotions of the football players.

Answer:
630 milliliters
Explanation:
Total water in the watering can = 980 milliliters
Water used to water the plants = x millimeters
Water left in the can = 350 milliliters
Total water in the watering can = Water used to water the plants + Water left in the can
980 = x + 350
980 - 350 = x
x = 630 milliliters
Water used to water the plants = 630 milliliters
Fraction used = Water used to water the plants / Total water in the watering can
= 630 milliliters / 980 milliliters
= 63/98
= 9/14
