Answer: <em>-5 5/8 i think :)</em>
Answer:
13/20
Step-by-step explanation:
To add fractions without the common denominator, you have to make them equal so
1/4 x 5 = 5/20
2/5 x 4 = 8/20
5/20 + 8/20 = 13/20
Let's break down all the information we receive from the question.
One pair of shoes= three times as much as a scarf
One pair of shoes and one scarf= $32
We need to make an equation where 3s= pair of shoes and s=scarf. We then need to put one pair of shoes + one scarf = 32.
3s+s=32
Now add.
4s=32
You could use 4s=32 (or 32÷4=s).
