Gabriel paints flower pots to sell at a craft fair. she paints 2/5 of a flower pot teal, 1/4 of it yellow, and the rest of it white. what fraction of the pot is painted either teal or yellow?

part of the flower pot is painted either teal or yellow.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the total part of the flower pot painted = x.

It is given that,

Part of the total painted teal =

Part of the total painted yellow =

Part of the total painted white = =

Thus, the fraction of the flower pot painted either teal or yellow is given by,

Fraction =

i.e. Fraction =

i.e. Fraction =

i.e. Fraction =

i.e. Fraction =

Hence, part of the flower pot is painted either teal or yellow.

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)
