Question

Cars were parked in a field. 25% were blue , 0.45 were orange and 17/100 were yellow. How many cars were parked in the field. Give your answer as a fraction

Answer 1

We can't answer how many cars were parked in the field, but the total fraction of blue, yellow, and orange cars is:

0.25 + 0.45 + 0.17 = 0.87 or 87/100.
