not enough information
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. Since this information is not provided, we cannot determine the fraction. Therefore, the correct answer is "not enough information."
The town of Oak Manor measures 3.8 miles by 4.2 miles. Solve for the total area.(1 point)

15.96 mi squared
16 mi2
To find the total area, we multiply the length and width of the town:
3.8 miles × 4.2 miles = 15.96 mi²
Therefore, the total area of Oak Manor is 15.96 mi².
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
−145.8 ft.
negative 145 point 8 ft.
−48.5 ft.
negative 48 point 5 ft.
−64.8 ft.
negative 64 point 8 ft.
−32.4 ft.
To find the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down, we can calculate the distance using the percentage.
23% of 97.2 feet = 0.23 × 97.2 = 22.356 feet
Since the diver is going down, the elevation will be negative.
Therefore, the correct answer is: -22.356 ft. (or negative 22.356 ft.).
But which answer is it
Apologies for the confusion.
The correct answer is: -22.356 ft. (or negative 22.356 ft.).
