You discover that you are over serving a dish because customers keep taking a third of it home. If the dish requires 4 ingredients with 3 parts each to prepare for a total of 12 parts, how many parts would you need to subtract to reduce the dish to two-thirds its current size?

4 parts

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total number of parts is 12 and you want to reduce the dish to two-thirds its current size, the number of parts that will be reduced is (1 - 2/3) = 1/3

To reduce 1/3 of the 12 parts, you need to multiply 12 by 1/3 to know how many parts is that:

12 * 1/3 = 12/3 = 4

You need to subtract 4 parts. If you have 4 ingredients, you can remove 1 part of each, so each ingredient now will have 2 parts.

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies

the answer is 54 sq. ft. i just did this question, on odyssey ware, and it was right. make brainliest.
