Answer:

5 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of pieces divide 1 7/8 by 3/8

Change 1 7/8 to an improper fraction

substitute this value into the equation

to solve this complex fraction remove the bottom fraction by multiplying both the top and bottom fractions by the inverse of the bottom fraction.

Multiplying by the inverse results in a product of 1 so the result is

dividing by 1 gives just the top fraction.

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair. 
kiruha [24]
5x+3y=58
5x-3y=22
(3y gets cancelled bc 3y-3y=0,  then add 5x with 5x, so you're left with)
10x=80, (divide both sides by 10)
x=8
Now we look for y. So choose one formula from the two (let's say 5x + 3y=58)
Substitute x for 8 so it will look like---- 5(8)+3y=58
Multiply 5*8--- so you get --  40+3y=58
Subtract 40 from both sides and you're left with 3y=18
divide both sides by 3
you get y=6
In conclusion, x=8 and y=6 hence, (8,6)
