1/5 of John's stamps is equal to 2/7 of Lawrence's stamps. If Lawrence has 350 stamps, how many stamps does John have?
Let x = John's stamps
2/7 is equal to Lawrence's stamps
1/5x = 2/7 (350)
1/5x = 100
x = 500 stamps
Let x = John's stamps
2/7 is equal to Lawrence's stamps
1/5x = 2/7 (350)
1/5x = 100
x = 500 stamps
