---------------------------------------
I am giving extra points because I need a full explanation and want to give brainliest to the best answer! Thank y'all!

Respuesta :

Let, Joseph has the number of DVDs = x
Then, Jordan has = 4/5 * x

It is given that Jordan has = 56
So, It would be: x * 4/5 = 56
x = 56 * 5/4
x = 14 * 5
x = 70

In short, Your Answer would be 70 DVDs

Hope this helps!
you would multiply the 56 by the 4/5 and you'd have to put 56 over 1 then multiply. 56/1*4/5=44 4/5
