Melanie uses 7.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls.

Question

3
4
of this amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint. How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?

Answer 1

Didn't we just do one like this? I can tell because the wording is exactly the same, as well as your lame-o and still uncorrected way of writing fractions.
3/4 blue, so 1/4 is white
1/4 * 7.6 = ____

Answer 2

0.2916

Answer 3

Actually, that's not correct. We need to find 1/4 of 7.6 by dividing 7.6 by 4.

7.6 ÷ 4 = 1.9

So, 1/4 of 7.6 is 1.9. This means that Melanie used 1.9 pints of white paint to paint her bedroom walls.
