Answer:
The correct answer is "50%".
Step-by-step explanation:
The given values are:
Gravel,
= [tex](1-\frac{1}{2} )[/tex]
Water,
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Cement,
= 1
Sand,
= 2
Now,
The total mixture will be:
= [tex]Gravel+Water+Cement+Sand[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
= [tex](1-\frac{1}{2} )+\frac{1}{2} +1+2[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2} +1+2[/tex]
= [tex]4 \ cubic \ feet[/tex]
hence,
The percentage of sand will be:
= [tex]\frac{Sand}{Total}\times 100[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2}{4}\times 100[/tex]
= [tex]50[/tex]%
