Hello!

To find how much shelves we cut, we need to divide 9 feet by 3/7 feet. When dividing by fractions, it is like multiplying its reciprocal.

This means that the reciprocal of 3/7 is 7/3.

9 / \frac{3}{7} = \frac{9}{1} * \frac{7}{3} = \frac{63}{3} = 21

Therefore, if each shelf is 3/7 feet in length, then there are 21 shelves.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:201 students

Mai biked 6\frac{3}{4} miles today, and Noah biked 4\frac{1}{2} miles.
Alinara [238K]

It was 1.5 times the length of Noah's bike ride as Mai’s bike ride.

The problem we dealing with is related to mixed numbers which are referred to as mixed numbers and could be the whole number, and a proper division spoke together. It for the most part speaks to a number between any two whole numbers.

Since we are providing mai's rate which is  6 3/4  miles and Noah's  rate of 4 1/2 miles, So in  order to find the time the length of Noah's ride is compared to Mal's, we just need to divide the given rates by each other

=> 6 3/4 divided by 4 1/2,  

=> 27/4 divided by 9/2, (The result is an improper fractions)

=> 27/4 X 2/9

=>3/2

=> 1.5
