= -3/2 * -5 1/4
convert 5 1/4 to improper fraction
= -3/2 * -21/4
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
= (-3*-21)/(2*4)
multiply in parentheses
= 63/8
convert back to mixed number
= 7 7/8
ANSWER: Since the exact answer is the mixed number 7 7/8, a reasonable estimate is 8.

Answer:
Elissa needs 4 quarts of paint, or 1 gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Elissa's room is in the shape of a rectangular prism. Assuming that she will only be painting the walls and not the floor or ceiling, you just need to calculate the area of the four walls - front and back and side to side. Based on the dimensions given, the area of Elissa's front and back walls are 8 ft x 9 ft or 72 ft² for each wall. Since there are two, we take that area times two: 72 x 2 = 144 ft².
Elissa's side walls are 8 ft x 13 ft or 104 ft² for each wall. Since there are two, we take this area times two: 104 x 2 = 208 ft².
To find the total area needed to paint, we add all four walls: 144 + 208 = 352 ft². Since a quart of paint covers 100 ft² and a gallon covers 400 ft², Elissa can either purchase 4 quarts of paint or 1 gallon to paint her bedroom.
Answer:
4 players and 1 instructor
Step-by-step explanation:
If all 4 players pay $300 each, that equals $1,200. The instructor will get $1,000 of it. That means there is $200 left. They need 40 balls per player. Each ball is $1, so that's $40 per player. 40 x 4= 160 200-160 = 40 The club will have $40 left.
