128/3 = 76 pieces of wire
The first one is 135 per hour if you barely went 90 miles in a hour in a half, and the second one it is 1/3+1/3+1/3 you add 2 more thirds so it means you add 2 forths 1/4/+1/4+1/4=3/4 so you paint 3/4's of the wall
Any number 1-26 should work. the expression would me x<$26.
