Emily spends $28 on food. This amount of 4/9 of her allowance, what is Emily’s allowance? please help with explanation !

$63

Step-by-step explanation:

so we want to find 9/9 of her allowance, which is 100%

we could use a proportion:

let 'a' = full allowance

÷ = ÷

when we divide fractions we multiply by the reciprocal to get:

28 x 9/4 = a

a = 252/4

a = 63

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
