1 answer:

6 0

If the ratio of red to blue pens is 3:1, we can find the amount of blue pens by multiplying by 1/3, to get 21*1/3=7. There are 21 red pens and 7 blue pens, so there are 21+7=28 pens total.

Solve: 3/4 (5 f - 3) = 3/8 F=?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

f= 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by reciprocal on both sides: 4/3 * 3/4(5f-3) = 3/8 * 4/3 f

Then, you are left with: 5f-3 = 1/2

Then you subtract by three on both sides to get: 5f=3.5

Finally, divide by 5 on both sides to get: f=.07
