Question

Martin had 2 4/5 pounds of grapes left. Which expression shows the pounds of grapes Martin has if he doubles his current amount?

Answer 1

`x=2 * 2 (4)/(5)`

Explanation:

Given : Martin had
`2 (4)/(5)` pounds of grapes left.

To Find: Which expression shows the pounds of grapes Martin has if he doubles his current amount?

Solution:

Current amount =
`2 (4)/(5)`

Now let the amount be x after he doubles the current amount

So,
`x=2 * 2 (4)/(5)`

`x=2 * (14)/(5)`

`x=(28)/(5)`

`x=5(3)/(5)`

Hence the expression shows the pounds of grapes Martin has if he doubles his current amount
`x=2 * 2 (4)/(5)`
