Change both fractions, so they have the same denomater
4 1/5= 4 4/20
3/4= 15/20
change the mixed number into an improper fraction
84/20Subtract 15 from 84
84-15=69
so you get 69/20

Answer:
500 lbs of mixed nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
15.4% of mixed nuts = 77 lbs of pecans
Divide the weight of pecans by the percent of mixed nuts to find how many pounds of pecans equal 1% of the mixed nuts:
77 / 15.4 = 5, so 5 lbs equals 1% of mixed nuts
Now multiply that number by 100 to get 100% of mixed nuts:
5 x 100 = 500
Therefore, there are 500 lbs of mixed nuts in a batch altogether.
To check, 15.4% = 15.4/100 = 0.514
Therefore, 15.4% of 500 = 0.514 x 500 = 77
Thereby proving that 15.4% of 500 is 77.
