Answer:
[tex]1\frac{1}{4}\ liters[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Convert mixed number to an improper fraction
[tex]1\frac{3}{5}=\frac{1*5+3}{5}=\frac{8}{5}[/tex]
step 2
Using proportion
[tex]\frac{2}{(8/5)}\frac{liters}{doors} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{liters}{door}\\ \\x=2/(8/5)\\ \\x=10/8\ liters[/tex]
step 3
Convert to mixed number
[tex]\frac{10}{8}\ liters=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{2}{8}=1\frac{1}{4}\ liters[/tex]
Clare is painting the door. 1.2 liters of paint will be required to cover one whole door.
Given information:
2 liters of paint is required to cover [tex]1\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex] doors.
The given improper fraction will be equivalent to,
[tex]1\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{8}{5}[/tex]
So, 2 liters of paint can cover [tex]\dfrac{8}{5}[/tex] portion of the door.
Thus, the paint required to cover one door will be,
[tex]2\times \dfrac{5}{8}=\dfrac{5}{4}\\=1.25[/tex]
Therefore, 1.2 liters of paint will be required to cover one whole door.
