Answer:

Total number of chips Caleb have = 8

Total number of chips Suzanne have = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

In Caleb case -

Three out of every four chips is blue

⇒ If Caleb has total chips = 4

Then Blue chips = 3

⇒White chips = 4 - 3 = 1

Now,

If Caleb have 6 blue chips

⇒3 Blue chips = 4 total chips

  1 Blue chip = \frac{4}{3} total chips

⇒6 blue chips = \frac{4}{3} ×6 = 4×2 = 8 total chips

∴ we get

Number of chips become = 8

In Suzanne case -

One out of every five chips are blue.

⇒ If Suzanne has total chips = 5

Then Blue chips = 1

⇒White chips = 5 - 1 = 4

Now,

If Suzanne have 6 blue chips

⇒1 Blue chips = 5 total chips

⇒6 blue chips = 5×6 = 30 total chips

∴ we get

Number of chips become = 30

Please help don’t get it

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you are asked to find the number of square feet covered by something, you are finding an area. To find the area of Jason’s circle, you first need to figure out if you have been given the radius or the diameter. By definition, the diameter of a circle is the longest distance across the circle, so we know here that the diameter is 8 feet. This means that the radius is 4 feet. So...

A = π(4)2

= 16π

≈ 50.2 square feet

So, Jason’s circle will cover about 50.2 square feet of his wall (and B is the closest one to that)
