To begin with, equivalent fractions represent the same part of a whole number. So I need to find a fraction, with a denominator of 20, that is the same value as 1/2:
1/2 = ?/20
1*10/2*10 = 10/20
Since the denominator needed to be 20, I multiplied the numerator and the denominator (1/2) by 10 to get 10/20. So, 1/2 and 10/20 are equivalent.
Answer:
2 orders
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
The local store sells at $24 per pair of jeans
Cost = $24
The online store sells at $22 per pair plus a shipping fee of $6 per order
let the number of orders be x
Cost= 22+6x
For 1 order
the online store will cost
Cost= 22+6*1
Cost= 22+6
Cost= $28
For 2 orders
The local shop cost
Cost= 24*2= $48
The online store will cost
Cost= 22+6*2
the online store will cost
Cost= 22+12
Cost= $34
Hence Tim should place at least 2 orders if he wants to buy online
