Pearl uses 8.9 pints of white paint and blue paint to paint her bedroom walls. 3 5 of this amount is white paint, and the rest is blue paint. How many pints of blue paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?

Pearl uses 3.56 ounces of blue paint

Step-by-step explanation:

IK this because if she uses 3/5 of the amount as white paint than 1/5 is 20 percent so if you multiply 20 times 3 you get 60 percent than to make 100 percent would be 40 percent,now if you would convert 3/5 to a decimal it would be .6 and the amount of pints is 8.9 ounces now 3/5 of 8.9 is 5.34 than the remaining of the 3/5 would be 2/5 and 2/5 of 8.9 is 3.56 so therefore the answer is 3.56.Sorry for all of this explaining I just wanted you too understand what the answer is.

8 2/3 is the answer

step-by-step explanation: just use a calculator
