To find the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit, we need to know the total number of apples picked before any were discarded or made into cider. Since the question does not provide this information, there is not enough information to determine the fraction of apples sold as fresh fruit. Therefore, the correct response is "not enough information."

To find the total area of a rectangle, we need to multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length is 3.8 miles and the width is 4.2 miles. Multiplying these two numbers together gives us an area of 15.96 square miles. Therefore, the correct response is "15.96 mi2" or "15.96 mi squared."
A diver searches for a sunken treasure that is 97.2 feet below the surface. What is the diver's elevation when he is 23 of the way down? (1 point)
Responses
−32.4 ft.
negative 32 point 4 ft.
−64.8 ft.
negative 64 point 8 ft.
−145.8 ft.
negative 145 point 8 ft.
−48.5 ft.
To find the diver's elevation when they are 23% of the way down, we need to find 23% of the total depth of 97.2 feet.
23% of 97.2 feet = 0.23 * 97.2 feet = 22.356 feet
Since the diver is descending, the elevation will be negative. Therefore, the correct response is "-22.4 ft." or "negative 22.4 ft."
To find the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit, we need to know the total number of apples picked after Sara discarded the defective ones. The information provided states that Sara discarded 110 apples, but there is no information given on the total number of apples picked before any were discarded. Therefore, we do not have enough information to determine the fraction.
The answer is: not enough information.
To find the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit, we need to determine the number of apples that were sold as fresh fruit and the total number of apples picked.
Given that Sara discarded 110 apples as defective, we can subtract this from the total number of apples picked to find the remaining apples:
Total apples picked - Apples discarded = Apples remaining
Let's say the total number of apples picked is A.
A - 110 = Apples remaining
Now, we know that out of the remaining apples, 300 were made into cider. Thus, the number of apples sold as fresh fruit can be found by subtracting the cider apples from the apples remaining:
Apples remaining - Apples made into cider = Apples sold as fresh fruit
Substituting the value of Apples remaining:
(A - 110) - 300 = Apples sold as fresh fruit
Now, to find the fraction, we divide the number of apples sold as fresh fruit by the total number of apples picked:
Fraction of fresh fruit sold = Apples sold as fresh fruit / Total apples picked
Fraction of fresh fruit sold = (Apples remaining - Apples made into cider) / Total apples picked
Considering the given options, the correct answer is "Start Fraction 3 over 10 End Fraction."
