<h3>Trina uses 3.44 or 
pints of white paint</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Trina uses 8.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls
3/5 of the amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint
From given,
3/5 of 8.6 pints is blue paint
Thus, 2/5 of 8.6 pints is white paint
<em><u>How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls? </u></em>
Thus she uses 3.44 or 17.2/5 pints of white paint
Because in '1/8', there are 8 whole number but one shaded and in '1/10', there are 10 whole number and one shaded. as you see in the picture, the smaller the denominator is(when it goes up), the more bigger it is than those below. So 1/8 is greater than 1/10. but 1/8 is smaller than 1/3, because remember:
*The more you go down(or the higher the denominator is), the more you are making the fraction into more smaller pieces.
*The more you go down(or the higher the denominator is), the more you are making the fraction into more smaller pieces.
