Answer:
16 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
5 2/5 + 2 1/4 Use the common denominator of 20
5 8/20 + 2 5/20
7 13/20
I know that I will need 14 packages for the 7 pounds. For the fraction part, 10/20 would be half, so I would need to buy a half pound for that, but I need 13/20 which would be more than a half pound, so I will need to buy 2 more pounds for the fraction part.
14 + 2 = 16
45 new houses.....last month 1/3 were sold....
1/3(45) = 45/3 = 15 houses sold last month
this month, 1/5 of the remaining houses were sold...
remaining houses left are (45 - 15) = 30
1/5(30) = 30/5 = 6 houses sold this month
houses left : 45 - 15 - 6 = 45 - 21 = 24 houses remain <==
