-3/4 < -7/10 < 3/4 < 8/10

I figured this out by dividing the numerator by the denominator to get a percentage. So

-3 divided by 4 = -75%

-7 divided by 10 = -70%

3 divided by 4 = 75%

and 8 divided by 10 = 80%

Converting to percentages really helps a lot with fraction, especially when ordering them from least to greatest :)

Hope this helps :)

-3/4, -7/10, 3/4, 8/10

-7/10 is -70%

-3/4 is -75%

3/4 is 75%

Mrs. Cleaver mixes 1.24 liters of red paint with 3 times as much blue paint to make purple paint. She pours the paint equally in

otez555 [7]

The amount of blue paint in each container is $\fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}$ .

Further explanation:

The mixture mixed by Mrs. Cleaver contains 1.24 litres of red paint with 3 times blue paint to obtain purple paint.

So, the amount of blue paint is calculated as,

${3} \times {1.24}=3.72 \text { liters}$

Therefore, the total amount of paint mixture is the sum of blue paint and red paint.

$\fbox{\begin \\\begin{aligned} \text{Total paint}= 1.24+3.72\\=4.96 \text{ liters}\\\end{aligned}\\\end{minispace}}$

Now, as Mrs. Cleaver divides the paint mixture equally in 5 containers so the amount of paint in one container is calculated as,

$\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Amount of paint in one container}&= \dfrac{4.96}{5}\\ &=0.992 \text{ liters} \end {aligned}}$

Since amount of blue paint mixed is three times the red paint so the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is $\dfrac{3}{4}$ .

Now, as it is known that the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is $\dfrac{3}{4}$ and the amount of paint in a container is $0.992 \text{ liters}$ then the blue paint in one container is calculated as,

$\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Blue paint in one container} =\dfrac{3}{4} \times 0.992\\=0.248 \text{ liters}\end{aligned}}$

Thus, the amount of blue paint in each of the five containers is $\fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}$ .
