$1.88. This is because 2/5 is equal to 0.40, and when you multiply 4.70 by 0.40, you get 1.88.

Answer:

The fare in 1979 was $1.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1999, bus fare in Atlanta was $4.70.

In 1979, the fare was 2/5 the fare in 1999.

This means the fare in 1979 was 2/5 of $4.70.

This means [tex]\frac{2}{5}\times4.70= 1.88[/tex] dollars

Hence, the fare in 1979 was $1.88.
