First we need to find the area of the fence, since paint covers square feet and squared units refers to area.  The area of the fence is 26 x 7, which is 182 sq ft.  If one gallon of paint will cover 350 sq ft, your proportion will look like this, with gallons of paint on top and square feet on the bottom. \frac{1}{350} = \frac{x}{182}.  Cross multiply to get 350x = 182 and x = .52, just a bit over a half of a gallon of paint.

What is 10/8 in simplest form
aliya0001 [1]
10/8 in simplest form:

First, we can start off by finding the GCF of the denominator and the numerator. To do so, we need to list the factors of each of them and find the common ones.

Factors of 10: 1, 2, 5, 10
Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8

We can see that our common factors are 1 and 2, considering that both the numerator and denominator has the same factors (1 and 2). Since we have our common factors, we need to find the greatest. Which is the greatest out of 1 and 2? The GCF is 2 because it is bigger than 1.

Second, divide the numerator and the denominator by the GCF (2).
10 \div 2 = 5  \\ 8 \div 2 = 4

Third, now we can revise our fraction and turn it into the simplest form. Take the two numbers you just got above us and put them in their numerator and denominator spot. You should get: \frac{5}{4}

Answer in fraction form: \fbox {5/4}
Answer in decimal form: \fbox {1.25}
Answer in mixed number form: \fbox {1 1/4}
