Answer:
She bought [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] pounds of tuna on Friday
Step-by-step explanation:
Franny brought pounds of tuna at fish market on Monday =[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
We are given that on Friday she bought two and a half times as much tuna bought on Monday
So, She bought pounds of tuna on Friday = [tex]2 \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
She bought pounds of tuna on Friday = [tex]\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
She bought pounds of tuna on Friday = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Hence She bought [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] pounds of tuna on Friday
