Answer :

Which story problem could be solve using the given equations. 
B & C. 

Answer: Option 'C' and 'B' are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

[tex]\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

In Option 'C' ,

Length of a poster is given by

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Width of a poster is given by

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

So, Area of poster is given by

[tex]Length\times breadth\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

In option 'B', part of dolls are within the original box is given by

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Part of dolls who has charity is given by

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Total dolls she donate is given by

[tex]\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

On the other hand, In option 'A'  has "Division operation" and option 'D' has "Subtraction operation".

Hence, Option 'C' and 'B' are correct.
