All that has to be done here is to divide the number of inches by the measurement of a finger. So, divide 25 by 4 1/2 and you get approximately 5.55 fingers. The 5 repeats endlessly so bar notation can be used. If the answer is needed as a fraction, change 4 1/2 to an improper fraction to get 9/2. In this case, you're dividing 25 by 9/2, which is the same thing as multiplying 25 by 2/9, the reciprocal of 9/2. This gives you a total of 50/9 fingers, or 5 5/9 fingers as a mixed fraction.

Answer:

  375 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...

  h +(h +63) = 813

  2h = 813 -63 = 750

  h = 750/2 = 375

375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.
