Answer:

Abby need to spent 5 days on vacation to buy 20 postcards.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of Postcard brought by Abby in 2 days of vacation = 8

Number of days of vacation = 2

We need find Number of days to spend on vacation to buy 20 Postcards

2 days = 8 postcards

1 day = Number of Postcard in 1 day

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of Postcard in 1 day =
$(8)/(2) = 4\ postcard$

Now we know that in 1 day he bought 4 Postcards So we need to find the Number of days to buy 20 postcards.

By Again using Unitary method we get;

Number of days to buy 20 postcards =
$(20)/(4)  = 5 \ days$

Hence Abby need to spent 5 days on vacation to buy 20 postcards.
