Answer:

The answer is

48 text messages

Explanation:

Were being asked how many text messages are to Bianca. Today, were using 3 ways on how to solve this problem. 2 are incorrect and 1 is correct.

First, let's use addition.


120+(4)/(5) +(1)/(2) =121.3

Were not looking for 121.3, it's too high. Therefore, using addition is incorrect.

Second, let's use subtraction..


120-(4)/(5) -(1)/(2) =118.7

Were not looking for 118.7 either. Therefore, using subtraction is incorrect as well.

Third, let's use multiplication...


120 * (4)/(5) * (1)/(2) = 48

As a result we got 48. Which is the answer your looking for.

Hope this helped! :^)

48 lol I think


120 x 80%

80% because 4/5 of his text are to friends

96/ one half

One half because half of his text are to her
