So every 5 inches in height, there are 32 marbles. You want to know how many marbles there are per 18 inches in height.

\frac{32}{5} = \frac{x}{18}

To get from 5 to 18, you multiply by 3.6.

Do the same thing to the numerator; 32 × 3.6 = 115.2.

Since 0.2 marbles is no marbles, you round down.

There are 115 marbles in the box.

♡ Hope this helps! ♡

Fran has 7 sheets of paper for a colouring project. If she only uses 1/3 of a sheet of paper per drawing how many drawings can s
Sav [38]
So we can make an equation for this, being 7=1/3x, as that effectively says she can make 3 drawings per page.

Knowing this, we can multiply it by 3 to get x=21 (since if she can draw 3 drawings per page, we can imagine that if each drawing took a page she would need 3 times the pieces of paper), therefore she can make 21 drawings.

All you have to do is divide 3.5 by 5 and you should get 0.7. So she used 0.7 yards on one dress. Hope this helped :)
