Answer:
Total peanut=324
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the peanut=x
Philip took 1/3 of x
Remaining peanut=x-1/3x
=3x-x/3
=2/3x
Joy took 1/4 of the remaining leaving 3/4
Remaining=(3/4)(2x/3)
=6x/12
=1/2x
Brent took 1/2 of those, leaving 1/2
=(1/2)*(1/2x)
=1/4x
Preston took 10
Remaining
1/4x - 10 = 71
1/4x = 81
x=81÷1/4
=81*4/1
x = 324
Total peanut =324
Philip=1/3x
=1/3*324
=108
Remaining 324-108
=216
Joy=1/4 of 216
=54
Remaining
324-108-54=162
Brent=1/2 of 162
=81
Preston=10
Total taken=Philip+joy+Brent+Preston
=108+54+81+10
=253
Total remaining=Total peanut - total taken
=324-253
=71

Depends on what’s the number
Fraction of strawberry = 1 / (2 + 1)
Fraction of strawberry = 1/3
Volume = πr²h/3
Volume = π(1.5)²(8)/3
Volume = 6π
Volume of strawberry = 1/3 x 6π
Volume of strawberry = 2π in³
