Answer 1

Answer:

The number of black ink pen are 15 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Jared bought a package of pens containing 20 pens.

$if\ \frac{3}{4}\ of\ the\ pens\ have\ black\ ink.$

Thus

$Number\ of\ black\ ink\ pens = \frac{3}{4}\times Total\ number\ of\ pens$

Putting the value

$Number\ of\ black\ ink\ pens = \frac{3}{4}\times 20$

Number of black ink pens = 3 × 5

                                          = 15 pens

Therefore the number of black ink pen are 15 pens.
