Ответ:
there were 20 school days that month
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of school days that were there that month.
Sergio walked to and from school on 3/5 of the days in one month. This means that the number of days that he walked to and from school is 3x/5
The remaining number of days would be
x - 3x/5 = 2x/5
He got a ride to school on 7/8 of the remaining days. This means that the number of days in which he got a ride to school is
7/8 × 2x/5 = 7x/20
The remaining number of days would be
2x/5 - 7x/20 = (8x - 7x)/20 = x/20
On the one remaining school day that month he stayed home with a cold. This means that
x/20 = 1
x = 20 × 1 = 20
