[tex]a=\frac{5}{3} \quad \frac{3}{7}=\frac{44}{21} \quad b=\frac{6}{7} \quad \frac{y}{5}=\frac{80}{20}[/tex]

Perform the following operations and select the correct answer:

[tex]\frac{-4}{6} + \frac{7}{8}[/tex]

A. [tex]\frac{25}{-141}[/tex]
B. [tex]\frac{10}{48}[/tex]
C. [tex]\frac{47}{48}[/tex]
D. [tex]\frac{25}{141}[/tex]


Sagot :

Vamos a detallar la solución paso a paso.

Luis tiene un sueldo de [tex]$500$[/tex] dólares. Según el problema, gasta [tex]\(\frac{2}{5}\)[/tex] de su sueldo en libros y [tex]\(\frac{1}{10}\)[/tex] en ropa.

1. Cálculo del gasto en libros:
[tex]\[ \text{Gasto en libros} = \frac{2}{5} \times 500 = 200 \, \text{dólares} \][/tex]

2. Cálculo del gasto en ropa:
[tex]\[ \text{Gasto en ropa} = \frac{1}{10} \times 500 = 50 \, \text{dólares} \][/tex]

3. Cálculo del gasto total:
[tex]\[ \text{Gasto total} = 200 + 50 = 250 \, \text{dólares} \][/tex]

4. Cálculo del dinero restante:
[tex]\[ \text{Dinero restante} = 500 - 250 = 250 \, \text{dólares} \][/tex]

Entonces, Luis gasta [tex]$200 en libros, $[/tex]50 en ropa, un total de [tex]$250, y le quedan $[/tex]250. La opción correcta es [tex]\( b \)[/tex].
