Joseph has 70 DVDs.
Explanation: To find out how many DVDs Joseph has, we need to use the ratio 4/5. This means that for every 4 DVDs Jordan has, Joseph has 5 DVDs. Since Jordan has 56 DVDs, we can multiply 56 by 5/4 to find out how many DVDs Joseph has. 56 x 5/4 = 70. Therefore, Joseph has 70 DVDs.
