William wants 2 out of every 3 stores in the mall to be clothing stores. If there are 150 stores in the mall, how many stores will be clothing stores?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf 100 \ stores}[/tex]

Explanation:

Total stores = 150

Clothing stores = 2/3 of the total stores

"of" means "to multiply"

Clothing stores:

[tex]\displaystyle =\frac{2}{3} \times 150\\\\= 2 \times 50 \\\\= 100 \ stores\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
