The answer is b, I hope this is correct
Let Xavier's favourite fraction be a/b, Yessie's favourite fraction = b/a and Zorro's favourite fraction = c/d,
c/d x a/b = 12/35 . . . . . . . . (1)
c/d x b/a = 15/7 . . . . . . . . (2)
(1) x (2) = c/d x a/b x c/d x b/a = 12/35 x 15/7
c^2 / d^2 = 36/49
c^2 = 36
c = 6
d^2 = 49
d = 7
Xaviers favourite fraction = 12/35 / 6/7 = 2/5
Yessies favourite fraction = 5/2
Zorro favourite fraction = 6/7
Answer: 32.35 cm^2
Step by step:
Find the area of the rectangle first.
A= L • W
A= 11 • 4.2
A= 46.2 cm^2
Then find the area of the circle. The formula is A= pi (r)^2. The diameter of the circle is 4.2 cm because looking at the width of the rectangle it fits into the circle as well.
Half of the diameter is 2.1 cm which is the radius.
A= pi (r)^2
A= pi (2.1)^2
A= pi (4.41)
A= 13.85 cm^2
Then you would subtract 13.85 from 46.2 to find the shaded portion.
Hope this helps :))
(yX3)+1 because product means multipy
