Compatible numbers are numbers which are easy to do mental calculation.
For example is when doing division like 25 and 5, 100 and 10, and 36 and 6.
First, we know that: 7 pounds=5 pounds + 2 pounds
or 7=5+2
In mathematics, the word “of” means to multiply. So:
grapes
given away = 7 * (2/5)
Replacing 7 with 5 and 2:
=
(5+2)*(2/5)
Using the distribution principle:
=5*(2/5)
+ 2*(2/5)
=2+
4/5
=2
4/5
So grapes given away is 2 4/5 pounds.
