Question

Sam had a full 1 L bottle of olive oil. He poured 0.25 L of the olive oil into a container to make salad dressing. He also poured an unknown amount x onto a plate as a bread dip. There was 0.6 L of olive oil remaining in the bottle.

Which equation can be used to solve for x?

A.
1 + 0.25 – x = 0.6

B.
1 + 0.25 + x = 0.6

C.
1 – 0.25 – x = 0.6

D.
1 – 0.25 + x = 0.6

Answer 1

D

starting amount - salad dressing - x = remaining amount

This is because he started with one full bottle then you just have to subtract the amount he used to get the remaining amount
