In a certain game, the units of currency of three countries are the crown, the shield, and the pound, respectively. If 2 crowns equal 3 shields and 3 shields equal 4 pounds, how many crowns equal 18 pounds?

Respuesta :

Answer:

9 crowns

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

2 crowns = 3 shields,

Now, 3 shields = 4 pounds

⇒ 2 crowns = 4 pounds

[tex]\implies 1\text{ pound}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\text{ crown}[/tex]

[tex]\because 18\text{ pounds}=18\times \text{ 1 pounds}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 18\text{ pounds}=18\times \frac{1}{2}\text{ crown}=9\text{ crowns}[/tex]

Hence, there would be 9 crowns in 18 pounds.
