We can use cross multiplication to solve this using proportions.
1/80 = x/760
760/80 = x
9.5 = x
Rounding up, they are likely to sell 10 vinyl records if they sell 760 CDs.
Answer : The number of vinyl records they likely to sell if the merchandise shop sells 760 CDs are, 6

As, the merchandise shop sells 80 CDs for every 1 vinyl record
So, the merchandise shop sells 460 CDs for every [tex]\frac{460}{80}\times 1=5.75\approx 6[/tex] vinyl record
Thus, the number of vinyl records they likely to sell if the merchandise shop sells 760 CDs are, 6
