Question

problem 6
elena has 5 tubes of blue glass paint to color her window.
she used 4 tubes to paint \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of the window.
does she have enough blue paint to completely color her window?
yes no

Explanation:

Step1: Find paint for full window

Let \( x \) be tubes for full window.
\( 4 \) tubes paint \( \frac{3}{4} \) window, so \( \frac{4}{x}=\frac{3}{4} \).
Cross - multiply: \( 3x = 16 \), \( x=\frac{16}{3}\approx5.33 \).

Step2: Compare with available paint

Elena has \( 5 \) tubes.
Since \( 5<\frac{16}{3}\approx5.33 \), she doesn't have enough.

Answer:

No
