Step One
Find the sum of the fractions for Monday and Tuesday
1/2 + 2/5
The common denominator for these 2 days is 10
1/2: 1*5/(2*5) = 5/10
2/5:2*2/(2*5) = 4/10
Add these two equivalent fractions together.
5/10 + 4/10 = 9/10
The first 2 days resulted in 9/10 of the shed being completed.
Step Two
Find out how much (in terms of fractions) is left of the shed.
Let the whole shed = 1
Let what has been done = 9/10
What remains is 1 - 9/10 = 1/10
Answer: 1/10 of the shed needs to be done
X (unknown number at first is 28) is the number 28.
28/7=4. 2(28) divided by 7= is also 56 divided by 7.
Which is 8. 8 is the final answer.

Answer:
46 gallons
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the area of the path. This area can be calculated as the difference between the area of the outer circle and the area of the inner circle. The area of a circle is equal to

Where r is the radius. For the outer circle, the diameter is 28 yd, so the radius is equal to
radius = diameter/2
radius = 28 yd/2
radius = 14 yd
Then, the area of the outer circle is

In the same way, the radius of the inner circle is
radius = diameter/2
radius = 18 yd/2
radius = 9 yd
Then, the area is

So, the area of the path is
Area path = 615.44 yd² - 254.34 yd²
Area path = 361.1 yd²
Now, we know that one gallon can cover 8 yd², so we can calculate the number of gallons as

Therefore, the number of gallons is 46 because we need to round the result to a whole number.
If the CPI for 1989 was 124, the rate of the inflation between the base period and 1989 was 24%!
