Jack, jill and bill each carried a 48-ounce bucket full of water down the hill. by the time they reached the bottom, jacks bucket was only 3/4 full. jill's was 2/3 full, and bills was 5/6 full. how much water did they spill altogether on their way down the hill

Jill lost 1/3

Bill lost 1/6

and Jack lost 1/4

Make a common denominator -  let's use 12

Jill lost 4/12

Bill lost 2/12

Jack lost 3/12

Add them together = 9/12

reduce by dividing by 3.

total of 3/4 spilt

48 divided into 4 parts then multiplied by 3 of those parts

48 / 4 * 3 = 36 

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
