Answer:

joseph = 11php/day

blouse = 319php

how many days will he sell?

lets represent days as A

11php multiplied with A days = 319php

11 x A = 319 (this is also the same as 11A = 319)

Divide both sides by 11 to get A.

A = 29, this is the number of days, Joseph needs to sell to buy the blouse

We can also use ratio and proportion

11 php = 1 day

319 php = ? days

11 = 319

1 ?

1 x 319 is 319

the product of 11 and ? should be = 319

so, 319/11 = 29

We can check by cross multiplication

29

x11

29

29

319

Therefore, 29 is correct.
