10. George, Sandy, Carlos, and Michelle all ate a piece of a whole
pecan pie. George ate 0.15 of the pie, Michelle ate of the pie,
and Carlos ate of the pie. Sandy ate more than two of her
friends, but less than the other one. What is a possible
percentage of the ple Sandy ate?

0.150 < (Proportion of Sandy's pie) < 0.167

15% < (Percentage of Sandy's pie) < 16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total percentage of pie = 100% or 1

George, Sandy, Carlos, and Michelle all ate a piece of the pie.

George ate a fraction of 0.150

Michelle ate a fraction of (1/6) = 0.167

Carlos ate a fraction of (1/7) = 0.143

The amount of pie left = 1 - 0.15 - (1/6) - (1/7) = 0.5405

And Sandy is known to eat more than two of her friends, but less than one of them.

Of the amount of pie eaten by the first 3 friends, (1/6) is the highest proportion.

Hence, it is evident that Sandy ate more than 0.143 and 0.150 (Carlos and George) but less than Michelle (0.167).

So, mathematically, the possible proportion of cake that Sandy ate is

0.150 < (Proportion of Sandy's pie) < 0.167

Hope this Helps!!!
