Teacher will have 3 bottles of glue after he combines

Solution:

Given that,

The art teacher has 7 bottles of glue that are each 2/5 full

He combines them so he will have fewer bottles

To find: bottles of glue does he have after he combines them

From given,

Total bottles = 7

Each is 2/5 full

Therefore, multiply 7 with 2/5 to get total bottles of glues he will have after combining

$Number\ of\ bottles\ of\ glues = 7 \times \frac{2}{5}\\\\Number\ of\ bottles\ of\ glues = \frac{14}{5} = 2.8 \approx 3$

Thus teacher will have 3 bottles of glue after he combines
