Sara discarded 110 of the apples she picked as defective. Of the apples remaining, 300 were made into cider. The rest were sold as fresh fruit. What fraction of the total apples picked were sold as fresh fruit?(1 point)
4/5
3/5
not enough information
3/10
To determine the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit, we need to find out how many apples were left after discarding the defective ones and making cider.
Let's calculate:
Total apples picked = apples discarded + apples made into cider + apples sold as fresh fruit
Total apples picked = 110 (discarded) + 300 (made into cider) + apples sold as fresh fruit
Since the rest of the apples are sold as fresh fruit, we can express this as:
Total apples picked = 110 + 300 + apples sold as fresh fruit
Given the equation, we can't determine the exact number of fresh apples sold. Therefore, the 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)

16 mi squared
15.96 mi2
To find the total area of Oak Manor, we need to multiply the length and width of the town.
Total Area = Length * Width
Total Area = 3.8 miles * 4.2 miles
Calculating this gives us:
Total Area = 15.96 square miles.
Therefore, the correct answer is "15.96 mi2."
A basketball player is 623 feet tall. His infant son is 14 as tall. How tall is his son?(1 point)

2 Start Fraction 2 over 12 End Fraction ft.
If the basketball player is 623 feet tall and his son is 1/4 as tall, we can calculate his son's height by multiplying the player's height by 1/4.
Son's Height = Player's Height * 1/4
Son's Height = 623 feet * 1/4
Calculating this gives us:
Son's Height = 155.75 feet.
Therefore, the correct answer is "155.75 ft."
in a fraction
Apologies for the confusion. Let's represent the son's height as a fraction in relation to the basketball player's height.
Son's Height = (1/4) * Player's Height
Son's Height = (1/4) * 623 feet
Calculating this gives us:
Son's Height = 623/4 feet.
Therefore, the correct answer is "155.75 ft" or "155 3/4 ft."
