Answer: 120 kilograms

Explanation:

We can buy 30 kilograms of beans for $5 dollars. We need to find how many kilograms of beans we can buy for $20.

The first step is to divide 20 by 5. Then, using the quotient, we can multiply it by 30 to see how many kilograms of beans we can buy for $20.

20 ÷ 5 = 4.

4 x 30 = 120.

Therefore, we can buy 120 kilograms of beans for $20.

Cool beans ;)
