A scientist had 3/4 of a bottle of a solution. She used 1/6 of the solution in an experiment. How much of the bottle did she use?

Respuesta :

To work this out you need to multiply 3/4 by 1/6.
=3/24
=1/8

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A scientist had [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of a bottle of a solution.

The part of the solution she used in the experiment :  [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

The part of bottle she used is given by : -

[tex]\dfrac{1}{6}\timers\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{1\times3}{6\times4}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

Hence, she used [tex]\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex] of the bottle .
