1 1/8 = g - 4 2/5
9/8 = g - 22/5
9/8 + 22/5 = g
45/40 + 176/40 = g
221/40 = g
5 21/40 = g
7x6=42. 7+35=42. The numbers are 7 and 42.
Turn 7/10 into decimal. (0.7)
Keep adding by 0.7 until you get the number closest to 4.1
3.5 is the closest, if we add another 0.7, we get 4.2.
So, he can get 5 sections of 0.7m
You would save $2.99
Work: 14.99 / 5 = 2.99
