Copper is 2’5 mass of the alloy, how many grams of copper is contained in 320 grams of the alloy.

Copper makes up 2/5 of the alloy mass.

Alloy – 320 grams.

1. To find the fraction of a number, you need to multiply the entire amount of the alloy by the fraction.

320 * 2/5 = 640/5 = 128 grams.

2. Second way. We need to understand what 2/5 of the number is.

2/5 – this whole number was divided into 5 parts, but only 2 was taken.

That is, 320: 5 * 2 = 64 * 2 = 128 grams
