You need to find the unit rate of 3 : 1800 first by dividing 1800 and 3
1800 ÷ 3 = 600
So this means for every 1 pound bag it covers 600 square feet. You now need to multiply 600 and 4 to see how many square feet 4 pounds cover.
600 × 4 = 2400
So each 4 pounds covers 2400 sq ft. Now you have to divide 8400 and 2400 to find how many bags of 4 pounds you need
8400 ÷ 2400= 3.5
You need 3.5 bags of 4 pounds.
Technically you would need 4 bags because you’d have to round it up.
Hope this helps you!! :)
Answer:
It is a mixed number because a fraction would be like 4/9.
Step-by-step explanation:
How you remember is that a decimal is in a place that makes it a mixed number,
X^5 (X to the fifth power) - 4 (x^5 - 4)
Some equivalent fractions of 8/3 are:
8/3 = 16/6 = 24/9 = 32/12 = 40/15 = 48/18 = 56/21 = 64/24 = 72/27 = 80/30 = 88/33 = 96/36 = 104/39 = 112/42 = 120/45 = 128/48 = 136/51 = 144/54 = 152/57 = 160/60
