Answer:

Mario could solve using the following equation:  x=(84-34.5)/8.25 which equals 6.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tent comes with 7 feet of rope, we need to first convert that measurement to inches.  Since there are 12 inches in one foot, then 7feet of rope= 7 x 12 = 84 inches.  Of the 84 inches of rope, 34.5 inches of that will be used to tie a tarp on the top of the tent.  With the remaining rope, Mario will need to cut sections that measure 8 1/4 or 8.25 inches.  If 'x' represents the number of sections he can cut, he can set up the equation such that: x = (84-34.5)/8.25, or 6.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

36 number of 2/3-pint bottles can be filled from a 24-pint container

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the container is 24 pint

Volume of the bottle is 2/3 pint

Number of 2/3 pint bottles that can be filled from 24 pint container is

\frac{24}{\frac{2}{3} } \\= 24 * \frac{3}{2} \\= 12 * 3\\= 36

36 number of 2/3-pint bottles can be filled from a 24-pint container
