or volleyball. He finds 1/5 of his friends like volleyball and 2/5 prefer soccer. How many of Joshua’s friends prefer volleyball and soccer over the other two sports?(1 point)
Let the total number of friends Joshua has be represented by x.
The number of friends who like volleyball is 1/5 * x = x/5.
The number of friends who prefer soccer is 2/5 * x = 2x/5.
To find the number of friends who prefer both sports, we add the number of friends who like volleyball and the number of friends who prefer soccer: x/5 + 2x/5 = 3x/5.
Therefore, 3x/5 of Joshua's friends prefer volleyball and soccer. Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{3x}{5}}.
