1 answer:

8 0

If the question is asking how many trees can be planted with 6 cubic yards of compost, here is the solution.

6 divided by 1/6 means to take 6 wholes and break them into groups the size of 1/6.

One whole can be broken into 6 groups of 1/6 (6/6), so 6 wholes can be broken into 36 groups of 1/6 (6 x 6 = 36/6).

Mathematically, you will multiply 6 by 6/1 to get the 36.

You can plant 36 trees with 6 cubic yards of compost.

Answer:

$7.7n=112.42$

$n=14.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

The product is the result obtained by multiplying two factors. Then, the sentence ""The product of a number n and 7.7 equals 112.42" can be expressed with the following equation:

$7.7n=112.42$

To solve for the variable "n", you has two apply the Division property of equality and divide both sides of the equation by 7.7

Therefore, the value of "n" is:

$\frac{7.7n}{7.7}=\frac{112.42}{7.7}\\\\n=14.6$
