Monica has a 24
24
-inch square frame. There are 4
4
equal sides. She paints 34
3
4
of one side of the frame blue.

What fraction of the frame did Monica paint blue?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The fraction of frame did Monica paint blue is [tex]\frac{3\sqrt{6}}{2}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The area of square frame = A = 24 square inches

Monica paint [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of one side of the frame blue

Let the measure of one side of frame = x

So, From Area of square

Area = side × side

Or, A = x × x

Or, x ² = 24

 x = [tex]\sqrt{24}[/tex] = 2[tex]\sqrt{6}[/tex]

So, Measure of each side = x = 2[tex]\sqrt{6}[/tex]

Now, As Monica paint [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of one side of the frame blue

So, The painted part = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ×  2[tex]\sqrt{6}[/tex]

∴ The painted part = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{6}[/tex]

I,e The fraction of painted blue = [tex]\frac{3\sqrt{6}}{2}[/tex]

Hence, The fraction of frame did Monica paint blue is [tex]\frac{3\sqrt{6}}{2}[/tex]  Answer

Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation: You see that Monica painted 3/4 of one side painted. There are four sides. You multiply 4 by 4 =16. You dont do anything to the three. You get 3/16.
