Answer:

14.3€

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

C=Price\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}shirt\\P=Price\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}pants\\T=Total\hspace{3}cost

Now, let's write the data provided by the problem, using algebraic notation.

The total cost of the clothes is 20€, so:

P+C=T\\\\P+C=20

The price of the shirt is :

C=\frac{2}{5} P

Replacing this value into the first equation:

P+\frac{2}{5} P=20

Solving for P:

\frac{7}{5} P=20\\\\P=\frac{100}{7} \approx 14.3

So, the price of the pants is 14.3€ and the price of the shirt is:

C+14.3=20\\\\C=20-14.3=5.7

Translation:

Deja que:

C=Precio\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}la\hspace{3}camisa\\P=Precio\hspace{3}del\hspace{3}pantalon\\T=Costo\hspace{3}total

Ahora, escribamos los datos proporcionados por el problema, usando notación algebraica.

El costo total de la ropa es de 20 €, entonces:

P+C=T\\\\P+C=20

El precio de la camisa es:

C=\frac{2}{5} P

Reemplazando este valor en la primera ecuación:

P+\frac{2}{5} P=20

Resolviendo para P:

\frac{7}{5} P=20\\\\P=\frac{100}{7} \approx 14.3

Entonces, el precio del pantalón es de 14.3 € y el precio de la camisa es:

C+14.3=20\\\\C=20-14.3=5.7

This question is not correctly written.

Complete Question

Select all equations that can represent the question: "How many groups of 4/5 are in 1?" A ?⋅1=4/5? Times 1 is equal to 4 fifths B 1⋅4/5=?1 times 4 fifths is equal to ? C 4/5÷1=?4 fifths divided by 1 is equal to ? D ?⋅4/5=1? Times 4 fifths is equal to 1 E 1÷4/5=?1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to ?

Answer:

D ?⋅4/5=1 = ? Times 4 fifths is equal to

E 1÷4/5=? = 1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

How many groups of 4/5 are in 1?

The operation used to solve this is that Division operation.

Hence, we solve it by saying:

1 ÷ 4/5 = ?

= 1× 5/4 = ?

5/4 = ?

Cross Multiply

5 = 4 × ?

? = 5/4

The equations that can represent the question: is

Option D ?⋅4/5=1 = ? Times 4 fifths is equal to

Option E 1÷4/5=? = 1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to

A recipe for chicken soup calls for 4 cups of water fir 9 servings. How many servings can be made with 12 pints of water?
Vlad [161]
First lets convert the pints to cups. 

1 pint = 2 cups 
12 pints = ? cups

Now lets multiply to find out how many cups are in 12 pints. 

12 × 2 = 24 
24 cups in 12 pints.  

Now lets look at the information we have.

4 cups of water per 9 servings

Now lets divide to see how many time 24 goes into 4.

24 ÷ 4 = 6

Now lets multiply:-

6 × 9 = 54

So, 54 servings of water fir in 12 pints of water.

Hope I helped ya!!!
