No, it is not.
4/7 ≈ 0.5714
3/5 = 0.6
Actually, 3/5 is greater than 4/7.
Another way you could do this is by multiplying 4/7 with 5/5 and by multiplying 3/5 with 7/7.
4/7 * 5/5 = 20/35
3/5 * 7/7 = 21/35

Please see below solution:
Let x = number of books that Bryan reads2x for amanda = Amanda 3x - 4 for Colin Amanda = 5/8(Bryan + Colin)2x = 5/8(x+3x-4)2x = 5/8(4x-4)
[16x = 5(4x-4)]816x = 20x - 20Subtract 20x from each side-4x =-20-4x/-4= -20/-4 divide -4 to eliminate the -4 in -4xx = 5
Therefore:
Bryan reads 5 books a month.
Since Amanda reads twice as many books a Bryan read so Amanda 10 books a month.
And Colin 11 books a month. 3(5) - 4 = 11
Answer:
$20
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>20% is equal to 20/100 therefore, if 5 x 20 is 100, you would multiply 5 x 4 and get 20, </em>
the reason you don't subtract the $4 is because it says "was" so the answer is $20
