Answer 1

i think the answers B

Answer 2

From the way that I look at it, I say the answer is C.

Answer 3

You can look at it two ways though, so @warood may be right also.

Answer 4

i know that the amount of silt in silty clay is silt, 0.05 mm and 0.002 mm so i turned that in a percentage and it was 20%-50% and 20% to 60% is the nearest answer wat do you think?

Answer 5

I was just studying the graph, so my guess was based off of what the graph was giving me? I think the answer is C because Silty clay is between 40% and 60%, but I may have looked at it wronged. So I took a second look at it and I realized that they were asking how much silt is present in silty clay and it may be B.
