Answer 1

The number of pair of gym shoes does Mr. king has is 27 pairs .

Explanation:

Given as :

Total number of pairs of shoes does king has = 36 pairs

The number of gym shoes =
`(3)/(4)` of the total pairs of shoes

Let The number of pair of gym shoes = n

According to question

The number of gym shoes =
`(3)/(4)` × the total pairs of shoes

Or, n =
`(3)/(4)` × 36

i.e n =
`(3* 36)/(4)`

Or, n = 3 × 9

∴ n = 27

So, The number of pair of gym shoes = n = 27 pairs

Hence, The number of pair of gym shoes does Mr. king has is 27 pairs . Answer
