# Three segments

The circle is divided into 3 segments. Segment A occupies 1/4 of the area, segment B occupies 1/3 of the area. What part is occupied by section C? In what proportion are areas A: B: C?

Result

C =  0.4167
r = (Correct answer is: 3/4:5)

#### Solution:

$C=1-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{5}{12}=0.4167$
