Answer: a) [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] b) [tex]\dfrac{71}{100}[/tex] c) [tex]\dfrac{5}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
There are green and yellow candies in each bag.
Bag A: Two thirds of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?
Part of yellow candies in bag A = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
Part of green candies in bag A would be
[tex]1-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{3-2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Bag B: 29 % of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?
Percentage of candies are yellow = 29%
Portion of candies are green is given by
[tex]1-\dfrac{29}{100}\\\\=1-0.29\\\\=0.71\\\\=\dfrac{71}{100}[/tex]
Bag C: 4 out of every 9 candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?
Portion of yellow candies = [tex]\dfrac{4}{9}[/tex]
Portion of green candies would be
[tex]1-\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{9-4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{9}[/tex]
Hence, a) [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] b) [tex]\dfrac{71}{100}[/tex] c) [tex]\dfrac{5}{9}[/tex]
