Answer 1

Concept Introduction:-

It might resemble a word or a number representation of the quantity's arithmetic value.

Given Information:-

We have been given that Sophie is painting sculptures. She has hers of paint and liters of thinner. She mixes the point $8/9$ $7/8$ and thinner, and uses one and a half liters of the solution to point $2$ sculptures.

To Find:-

We have to find that solution is Sophie left with

Solution:-

According to the problem

Let the paint be $\frac{8}{9}$

Let the thinner be $\frac{7}{8}$

$\therefore \frac{8}{9}+ \frac{7}{8}\\=\frac{64+63}{72}\\=\frac{127}{72}\\=1.76$

Remaining solution$=1.76-1\frac{1}{2}\\=1.76-\frac{3}{2}\\=1.76-1.5\\=0.26$

Final Answer:-

The remaining solution is $0.26$.
