Question

Colton has 8 comedy movies, 6 action movies, 5 fantasy movies, 1 drama movie on his list of favorites. For every 5 movies on his list, there are 2 ___ movies

Answer 1

comedy is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Comedy movies

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Comedy movies = 8,

Action movies = 6,

Fantasy movies = 5,

And, drama movies = 1

Thus, total movies = 8 + 6 + 5 + 1 = 20,

Also, Fraction of comedy movies = $\frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

i.e., there are 2 Comedy movies in every 5 movies,

Note : Similarly,

Fraction of Action movies = $\frac{6}{20} = \frac{3}{10}$

i.e. there are 3 Action movies in every 10 movies,

Fraction of Fantasy movies = $\frac{5}{20} = \frac{1}{4}$

i.e. there is 1 Fantasy movie in every 4 movies,

Fraction of drama movies = $\frac{1}{20}$

i.e. there is 1 drama movie in every 20 movies,
