(divided)

Answer 2

Answer : The expression to find the weight of one fish is,

$X=\frac{235}{100} pounds$

Step-by-step explanation :

Let the weight of one fish be, X

So, the weight of 100 fishes will be :

= 100 × X

As we are given that the weight of 100 fish is 235 pounds. Now we have to determine the expression of weight of one fish.

As, the weight of 100 fish = 235 pounds

235 pounds = 100 × X

So, the weight of 1 fish :

$X=\frac{235}{100} pounds=2.35 pounds$

Therefore, the expression to find the weight of one fish is,

$X=\frac{235}{100} pounds$
