1/4

How many stamps have pictures of birds on them?

There are stamps with pictures of birds on them.

Answer 1

Answer:

5 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to figure out how many stamps have pictures of animals. You do this by multiplying your total number of stamps (60) by 1/3 (or you could also divide it by 3).

60 x 1/3 = 20

Now that you know there are 20 animal stamps, you need to figure out how many of them have birds on them. You do this by multiplying your number of animal stamps (20) by 1/4 (or you could divide it by 4).

20 x 1/4 = 5
