Joan needs to estimate the size of her bedroom so that she can buy enough paint to cover the walls. Two of the walls measure 2.8
labwork [276]

The total area of the room is 37.6376 and the no. of cans required to paint the wall is 3 cans.

The measurement of two of the walls is 2.86 metres and 3.16 metre

Area of the two walls = 2(length x breadth)

Area = 2(2.86 x 3.16) = 18.0752 m²

The measurement of the other two walls is 2.86 metres and 3.42 metres

Area of the two walls = 2(length × breadth)

Area = 2(2.86 × 3.42) = 19.5624 m²

Total area = 18.0752 + 19.5624 = 37.6376 m²

If one can of paint can cover 15 m², the no. of cans required to paint the bedroom will be

No. of cans = Total area/Area covered by one can of paint

No. of cans = 37.6376/15 = 2.5091 = 3 cans (approx.)

If it requires 6 pounds of wild caught animals to create 1 pound of salmon, what percent of the wild caught animals are wasted?
Oduvanchick [21]

The percentage of animal wasted is the number of animal wasted over 100

85.7%  of the wild caught animals are wasted

<h3>How to calculate the animal wasted</h3>

From the question, we have:

Animals caught = 6 pounds

Salmon = 1 pound

The total weight in the system is:

Total = 6 pounds + 1 pound

So, we have:

Total = 7 pounds

The percent of wild caught animals wasted is then calculated as:

\%Wasted = \frac{6}{7} * 100\%

Simplify

\%Wasted = 85.7\%

Hence, 85.7%  of the wild caught animals are wasted
