Some algae contains up to 50% oil by weight. How much oil is in a 7.3-ounce sample of this type of algae?

Answer: 3.65

Explanation:

This question is asking basically what is 50% or 1/2 of 7.3.

Let's expand the number 7.3

Then, we end up getting 7.30.

We have to find 1/2 of 7.30.


(1)/(2) of 7.30 =
3.65

Hope this helps you!
