Answer:

50 photographs

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5}{15} = \frac{x}{150}[/tex]

Solve using cross multiplication.

15x = 750

x = 50

There will be 50 photographs in a 150 pages cookbook.

OR

You know that  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of the pages are photos since 5 over 15 equals one third. Therefore, you can multiply 150 by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] to also get 50.

50
