Problema Solution
Armand needs to use only 3/5 of the paint he has.if he has 3 1/4 qt of paint,how much will he use?
Answer provided by our tutors
3 and 1/4 of paint can be expressed as 13/4 quarts
3/5 of 13/4 is:
(3/5)*(13/4) = (3*13)/(5*4) = 39/20 = 1.95
he will use just under 2 quarts of paint, almost 1/2 gallon
