Honestly I can see an argument for 7 shelves or for 8 shelves.
When you do the calculation;
You get 7.15 shelves. Clearly you cannot have .15 of a shelf so the logician in me wants to say you need 8 shelves!
But if the assignment is aimed estimation skills, (Which is what I assume is being implied by the title of the assignment), then the easier calculation of
is probably what the teacher was hoping for.

. Remember division is NOT communitive! i.e.

From the image;
The first step was to see that 59 can not go into 4..resulting in the zero above the 4, multiplying 0 by 59 and subtracting 0 from 4.
The second step begins by bringing down the 2, seeing that 59 can not go into 42..resulting in the zero above the 2, multiplying 0 by 59 and subtracting 0 from 42.
The third step begins by bringing down the 2, seeing that 59 can go into 422 7 times (I tested this on the right by a short multiplication problem)..resulting in the 7 above the 2, multiplying 7 by 59 and subtracting 413 from 42.
This process continues....

Answer:
C) Both
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
To solve the given equation, we can use the Zero Product Property according to which if the product <em>A.B = 0</em>, then either A = 0 OR B = 0.
Using this property:
So, Erik's solution strategy would work.
Now, let us discuss about Caleb's solution strategy:
Multiply i.e.
=
So, the equation becomes:
Comparing this equation to standard quadratic equation:
a = 3, b = -10, c = -8
So, this can be solved using the quadratic formula.
The answer is same from both the approaches.
So, the correct answer is:
C) Both
