Brainliest? :) (I'd really appreciate if you mark me as brainliest)
4/5x - 4/10 = 2/20...multiply everything by common denominator 20
16x - 8 = 2
16x = 2 + 8
16x = 10
x = 10/16 which reduces to 5/8 <=
Answer:
steps: divide, multiply, subtract, and bring down.

Part A:
Given the ratio 1 : 2, we can describe this ratio with the following situation.
The number of green balls to orange balls in the bag is in the ratio of 1 : 2. For every green ball in the bag, there are 2 corresponding orange ball.
Part B:
Given the ratio 29 : 30, we can describe this ratio with the following situation.
The ratio of the amount of sugar used to the amount of salt used to prepare the sugar-salt solution is 29 : 30. For every teaspoons of sugar used in the solution, 30 teaspoons of salt needs to be used.
Part C:
Given the ratio 52 : 12, we can describe this ratio with the following situation.
The
number of kilometers travelled by the car and the bicycle is in the ratio of 52 :
12. For every 52 kilometers travelled by the car, the bicycle travelled 12 kilometers.
