Answer:
5 or 6 (or 2 or 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Any quadrilateral can be covered by 2 triangles, so the integer number in 7/3 = 2 1/3 quadrilaerals will require 2×2 = 4 triangles.
The meaning of (1/3) trapezoid determines the number of additional triangles required. If 1/3 trapezoid is a triangle, only one is needed. If 1/3 trapezoid is a quadrilateral, then 2 triangles are needed.
_____
If the 7/3 trapezoids are butted against each other so they make a larger quadrilateral figure, then only 2 triangles are needed.
_____
If each trapezoid is constructed from 3 equilateral triangles, and you want to know the total number of those equilateral triangles in 7/3 such figures, it will be 3 × 7/3 = 7.
