Omar's gas tank is 1/10 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 2/5 full. How many gallons can Omar's tank hold?

1 answer:

4 0

1/10x + 6 = 2/5x
6 = 2/5x - 1/10x
6 = 4/10x - 1/10x
6 = 3/10x
6 / (3/10) = x
6 * 10/3 = x
60/3 = x
20 = x <=== the gas tank can hold 20 gallons

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. That means it will take one person $10\times6=60$ days to finish the house.

Which means that it will take 4 people $\frac{60}{4}=15$ days to finish the house.

So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be $\frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}$

Thus, Option D is the correct answer.
