1 Lola collects blood donations at a clinic. 7/16 of the donations are of Type 0, 3/8 are of Type A, and 1/16 are Type AB. The remaining are Type B. What part of the blood donations are Type B?

Answer:
n=1/8
Explanation:
From the diagram, if we sum up all the parts, we have:
[tex]\frac{7}{16}+\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{16}+n=1[/tex]We solve the equation above for n.
The lowest common multiple of 16 and 8 = 16
Therefore:
[tex]\frac{7+6+1}{16}+n=1[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{14}{16}+n=1 \\ n=1-\frac{14}{16} \\ n=\frac{16-14}{16} \\ n=\frac{2}{16} \\ n=\frac{1}{8} \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of n is 1/8.
