To find out how many grills Pat sold, we need to calculate 2/5 of the total number of grills sold.
First, let's find out the total number of grills sold by adding up the number of grills sold:
Total Grills sold = 60
Now, we will calculate 2/5 of the total number of grills sold:
2/5 x 60
To calculate this, we multiply the numerator (2) by the denominator (60) and then divide by the denominator (5):
(2 x 60) / 5 = 120 / 5 = 24
Therefore, Pat sold 24 grills.
