1/5 of 50 = 10

7/10 of 50 = 35

1/10 of 50 = 5

there would be space for 5 educational apps <3

Answer: A(5)

Step-by-step explanation: First we need to convert 1/5 to 2/10 so we not work with the fractions. So 2/10 apps were social media and 7/10 were games so we can add those together to get 9/10. So 9/10 apps are not educational. We know 50÷10=5 so 5×9=45 so 45 apps are non-educational so that means 5 apps are educational.

Hope this helps!
