Answer: 8 days

Explanation:

Given, At Sami's Shoe Warehouse, it takes 4 over 5 of a day to complete 1 over 10 of an order of sneakers.

i.e.
(4)/(5) x (1 day) =
(1)/(10) x (an order of sneakers)

Multiply 10 on both the sides , we get


(4)/(5)*10 x (1 day) =
(1)/(10)*10 x (an order of sneakers)


4*2 x (1 day) = an order of sneakers


8 x (1 day) = an order of sneakers

i.e. Time to complete an order of sneakers = 8 days

Hence, it will take 8 days to complete the entire order of sneakers.
