Given:
2 1/6 quarts of white
3 1/2 quarts of green
1 3/4 quarts of yellow

Add up all the fractions.
1) convert to improper fractions:
2 1/6 → (6*2) + 1 = 13/6
3 1/2 → (2*3) + 1 = 7/2
1 3/4 → (4*1) + 3 = 7/4

2) Identify LCD and multiply each fraction to reach the LCD. LCD is 12.
13/6 * 2/2 = 26/12
7/2 * 6/6 = 42/12
7/4 * 3/3 = 21/12

26/12 + 42/12 + 21/12 = (26+42+21) / 12 = 89/12 

89/12 must be converted into a mixed fraction  which will result to 7 5/12

A. Yes, the answer is reasonable.

89/12 or 7 5/12 is 7.42 in decimal form. It can be rounded down to the nearest whole number which is 7.

8n + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know that n is the unknown number. Product means multiplying, so you multiply 8 by the unknown number. More than means adding, so you add 8 to the product of 8n.
