Answer: 1 pound per $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine this problem as a ratio:

Pounds : Dollars

3 : 6

To simplify this ratio, we see that a common divisor(in fact the only common divisor) is 3.

3/3 : 6/3

1 : 2

Therefore, we get 1 pound per $2

Answer:

The mistake she made was ; She didn't change the sign when subtracting -3/4 from both sides

She wrote 5/4+3/4 instead of 5/4-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct solution:

$\frac{3}{4} + m = \frac{5}{4}$

Subtract-3/4 from both sides

$\frac{3}{4} - \frac{3}{4} + m = \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4}$

Simplify

$m = \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4} \\ m = \frac{1}{2}$
