Answer:

Number of students attended the fall play=1296

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of adults=x

Number of students=3\times number\ of\ adults-150=3x-150

Given that total number of tickets=1778

Number of students+ Number of adults=1778

x+(3x-150)=1778\\4x-150=1778\\4x=1778+150\\4x=1928\\x=\frac{1928}{4}\\x=482

Number of adults=482

Number of students=3x-150=3\times482-150=1446-150=1296

Number of students=1296

We have to divide 9/10 by 3/12.

if we divide by a fraction, we can instead multiply by it's inverse:

\frac{9}{12}/ \frac{3}{12}  = \frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3}

so now we count:

\frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3} =\frac{9}{1} * \frac{1}{3}=3

so we can cut exactly 3 pieces!
