Set up ratio problem
.2 oz butter / (1/15) lb jelly = x / 1 lb jelly
Then cross multiply the stuff opposite each other in the fractions... set it up as a multiplication problem
.2 × 1 = (1/15) × x
.2 = (1/15)x
Multiply both sides of equation by 15 to clear out the (1/15) fraction and get x
x = 3

Answer:
10 CDs
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find out how much she spent in total.
365 - 185 = 180
Okay, we now know that Holly spent 180 off of her gift card in total. Now we need to find out how many CDs she purchased by spending that amount of money.
180 ÷ 18 = 10
Let's check our math.
18 × 10 = 180
So our answer is Holly bought 10 CDs.
