a store owner had 225 suits. at the end of a sale he had sold 4/5 of them. how many suits were left
divide 225 by 5
then that gives u 1/5 witch is how much u need
To find out how many suits were left, we need to calculate 4/5 of the total number of suits the store owner had.
Given that the store owner had 225 suits, we can multiply this by 4/5 to find out how many suits were sold:
225 x 4/5 = (225 x 4) / 5 = 900 / 5 = 180
So, the store owner sold 180 suits.
To find out how many suits were left, we subtract the number of suits sold from the total number of suits:
225 - 180 = 45
Therefore, the store owner had 45 suits left.
