From the data, you have to share 5 pieces among 3 people.
so each person will get 5/3
5/3 = 1.7
40/60= 0.67 (i.e. 2/3)= about 66.67%
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If 9 members paid on the first day, this means they did not pay on the third day
The remaining people (everyone but the 9) paid on the third day
Therefore we must subtract to find out how many members paid on the third day
22 - 9 = 13
Each of the 13 members paid $12.80 which means we must multiply
13 × 12.80 = 166.40
In total, the grocery store collected $166.40 on the third day of the month
1/2 is equivalent to 2/4 because,
2(1/2) = 2/4
So as you can see if you multiply the numerator(top) and the denominator(bottom) by the same number, you get an equivalent fraction! In my example you can see that I multiplied both by 2.
