Brooke uses 8.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 3/5 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?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3 11/25 pints of white paint

Step-by-step explanation:

8 6/10 is the same as 43/5

if 3/5 of the total pints are blue then 2/5 are white

so multiply 43/5 x 2/5 to get 86/25 which equals 3 11/25
