Answer:

<em>2 gallons </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Han used 1 1/2 gallons of paint to paint 3/5 of a shed, this can be expressed as;

1 1/2 gallons = 3/5 of the shed

3/2gallons = 3/5 of the shed

To find the number of gallons that will paint the whole shed, we will say;

x gallons = 1 shed

Divide both expressions

3/2/x = 3/5

3/2x = 3/4

2x * 3 = 3*4

6x = 12

x = 12/6

x = 2

<em>Hence 2 gallons will be needed for the whole shed</em>

A circle has a circumference of 361\pi361π361, pi. What is the diameter of the circle?
denpristay [2]
Remember, C=\pi d, where C is circumference and tex]d[/tex] is the diameter. They are related by a constant \pi (pi).

We can solve the above equation for d and then substitute our known values.
C=\pi d

d= \dfrac{C}{ \pi } =  \dfrac{361  \pi }{ \pi } = 361 \ units
