We know that 12 equals one dozen. It is not asking for a dozen, but for 9 dozen. So, we need to multiply 9 by 12. 9*12 = 108.
It says the rolls of first aid tape were divided equally into 4 boxes. We need to divide these 108 rolls into 4 equal groups, since that is what took place in the problem. So, we divide 108 by 4.
108/4 = 27. There are 27 rolls in each box.
A) 23/8 divide 23 by 8 to get 2 with remainder 7 therefore 2 7/8
work all by treating each fraction as a division problem and placing the remainder over the divisor
b) 14/3 = 4 2/3
c) 19/11 = 1 8/11
d) 8/7 = 1 1/7
e) 17/9 = 1 8/9
f) 27/8 = 3 3/8
g) 35/5 = 11 2/3
h) 9/4 = 2 1/4
