Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
To formulate the equation that shows the cost of 10 pounds of potatoes is 8 dollars we proceed as follows;
suppose the cost 1 pound is x;
thus,
total cost=(amount in pounds)*(price of one pound)
total cost=$8
amount=10 pounds
cost of one pound=x
thus the equation is;
8=10x
A:b = 8:5 b:c = 3:4
since both sides have b. make b the same. multiply the left by the right side b value of 3 and multiply the right by the left side b value of 5.
3(a:b) and 5(b:c)
3 (8:5) and 5(3:4)
24:15 15:20
now that both sides have the same b value
a:b:c = 24:15:20
0.05 rounded to the nearest whole number is 0~
