Answer:
40% of the total was spent on fruit
Step-by-step explanation:
100%=45 x=18
100/x = 45/18 Now take the inverse of both sides
x/100 = 18/45
This leads to 1800 = 45x
1800 divided by 45 is equal to 40
The total percentage spent on fruit was 40%
X = 12, because there is only one answer that has a number bigger than 9 :)
5x-2=3x+8
X=5
That's your answer
