To find out how many apples were sold as fresh fruit, we first determine how many apples were discarded as defective.
Sara discarded \( \frac{1}{10} \) of the 200 apples:
\[ \text{Defective apples} = \frac{1}{10} \times 200 = 20 \]
Next, we subtract the defective apples from the total apples picked to find the amount sold as fresh fruit:
\[ \text{Fresh apples} = 200 - 20 = 180 \]
Therefore, the number of apples sold as fresh fruit is 180.
Yes, that is correct. Here is the breakdown:
So, the number of apples sold as fresh fruit is indeed 180.
To find the total area of the town of Oak Manor, which is shaped like a rectangle, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:
\[ \text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \]
Given:
Now, calculate the area:
\[ \text{Area} = 4.2 , \text{miles} \times 3.8 , \text{miles} = 15.96 , \text{mi}^2 \]
Therefore, the total area is 15.96 mi².
To find the height of the basketball player's son, who is \( \frac{1}{4} \) as tall as the player, we need to first convert the player's height from a mixed number to an improper fraction.
The basketball player's height is \( 6 \frac{2}{3} \) feet.
Convert \( 6 \frac{2}{3} \) to an improper fraction: \[ 6 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{20}{3} , \text{feet} \quad (\text{since } 6 \times 3 + 2 = 20) \]
Now, we find \( \frac{1}{4} \) of the player's height: \[ \text{Son's height} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{20}{3} = \frac{20}{12} = \frac{5}{3} , \text{feet} \]
Convert \( \frac{5}{3} \) to a mixed number: \[ \frac{5}{3} = 1 \frac{2}{3} , \text{feet} \]
So, the height of the basketball player's son is 1 \( \frac{2}{3} \) feet.
