Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>

All you have to do to get another way to write a fraction is double the original fraction.
For example...
1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 = 8/16...
All these are half, 8/16 is the same as 1/2.
Hope this helped. Have a great night!

Step-by-step explanation:
Do a proportion
440/75= 1760/x
cross multiply
440x=1760(75)
simplify
132000/440
We are given that there
will be (1/2) a litre after the first pouring, so considering two successive
pourings (n and (n+1)) with 1/2 litre in each before the nth pouring occurs:
1/2 × (1/n) = 1/(2n)
1/2 - 1/(2n) = (n-1)/2n
1/2 + 1/(2n) = (n+1)/2n
(n-1)/2n and (n+1)/2n in
each urn after the nth pouring
Then now consider the
(n+1)th pouring
(n+1)/2n × 1/(n+1) =
1/(2n)
(n+1)/(2n) - 1/(2n) =
n/(2n) = 1/2
Therefore this means that after
an odd number of pouring, there will be 1/2 a litre in each urn
Since 1997 is an odd
number, then there will be 1/2 a litre of water in each urn.
