Answer:
63 Full loads of laundry
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been told in the question that 1 3/5 oz or 8/5 oz of detergent is used for a full load of laundry.
So,
1 full load of laundry requires 8/5 oz of detergent
Then,
x full loads of laundry require 100 oz of detergent
100 = 8/5x
x = 100 * 5/8
x = 63 Full loads of laundry (to the nearest whole number)
Break it down
"15 less than " means -15
"a number" means unknown or placeholder means x
"is equal to" means '='
'12' means 12
-15+x=12
add 15
x=27
