Answer:
<u>The three options that can be used are A, C and E.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Total of girls in the Spanish club = 30
Total of girls in the Spanish club = 3/5 of the members
Which statements can be used to solve for x, the total number of members in the Spanish club?
Let's solve for x, this way:
3/5 * x = 30
3x = 30 * 5
3x = 150
x = 150/3
x = 50
Now, let's evaluate the three options that can be used to solve for x:
<u>A. Three-fifths x = 30
. This option can be used.</u>
B. Three-fifths = x/30
. This option can't be used.
<u>C. Three-fifths (Five-thirds) x = 30 (five-thirds)
. This option can be used.</u>
D. (Three-fifths (five-thirds) x = 30 (five-thirds)
. This option can't be used.
<u>E. x = 50. This option can be used.</u>
<u>The three options that can be used are A, C and E.</u>
