Question

To the nearest hundredth of a canister how much more blue paint than yellow paint does angie use in all

Answer 1

To find out how much more blue paint than yellow paint Angie uses, subtract the total amount of yellow paint from the total amount of blue paint. The result to the nearest hundredth indicates the extra amount of blue paint used.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how much more blue paint than yellow paint Angie uses in all, we need to have the exact amounts of each color used. Assuming we have this information, we subtract the total amount of yellow paint from the total amount of blue paint. For instance, if Angie uses 3.25 canisters of blue paint and 2.78 canisters of yellow paint, we would calculate it as follows:

1. Write down the amounts of each color: Blue = 3.25 canisters, Yellow = 2.78 canisters.
2. Subtract the amount of yellow paint from the blue paint: 3.25 - 2.78.
3. Perform the subtraction to determine the difference: 0.47 canisters.

Therefore, Angie uses 0.47 canisters more of blue paint than yellow paint. To express this to the nearest hundredth, we can see that it is already in the correct format, since there are two decimal places in the answer.
