The spin on a washing machine takes out 35% of the water in clothes. The clothes in the washing machine contain 3 pints of water. How much water is left after a spin?
1.95 pint because if you first subtract 100 by 35 you will get 65. So now all you have to do is to multiply 3 by 65% (which is .65) and you will get your answer which is 1.95 pint.
