Complete Question

Maya has 120 caramel apples to sell. Each caramel apple is covered with one topping. 1/5 of the caramel apples are covered with peanuts. 1/3 are covered with chocolate chips. 3/10 are covered with coconut. The rest are covered with sprinkles. How many caramel apples are covered with sprinkles?

20 caramel apples covered with sprinkles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the Fraction of Apples covered with sprinkles

Let the total number of apples be represented by 1

Hence,

1 = 1/5 + 1/3 + 3/10 + Fraction of Apples covered with sprinkles

Fraction of Apples covered with sprinkles = 1 - (1/5 + 1/3 + 3/10)

Lowest Common Denominator = 30

= 1 - (6 + 10 + 9/30)

= 1 - 25/30

= 5/30

= 1/6

Fraction of Apples covered with sprinkles = 1/6

Step 2

The number of caramel apples are covered with sprinkles is calculated as:

120 caramel apples × 1/6

= 20

Hence, we have 20 caramel apples covered with sprinkles

a. the are of the rectangle is 18.25
