Answer:

José has 49 used stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

7 used stamps for every 4 new stamps

To solve this type of problem, we can use a ratio

7 : 4 ratio

He has 28 new stamps

7 : 4 = x : 28

Ratios can be written as fractions

\frac{7}{4} = \frac{x}{28}

Cross multiply

4x = 7(28) = 196

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = 49

Hope this helps :)

What can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positive? negative? or zero?
Archy [21]
If the quotient is positive, we know that the two integers are either both positive or both negative.

If the quotient is negative, we know that one integer is positive and the other is negative.

If the quotient is zero, then we are dividing 0 by some non-zero integer.
