First, find the total area of pizza. The area of a rectangle is length times width.
Area = 21 x 36 = 756 sq. inches
Now, we must divide the total area with the largest square possible without any excess. So, we equate the area of the pizza to area of square:
A = s² = 756
s = 6 √21
Hence, the largest piece square possible has a side of 6 inches. Then, we divide the total area of the pizza by the area of each square piece to find the number of pieces;
756/6² = 21
Thus, there would be 21 pieces of 6-in square piece of pizza.
So you can do 1/2 and then divide it by 1/8.
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal.
So;
1/2 / 1/8 = 1/2•8/1
1/2• 8 = 8/2
8/2= 4
So he can fill 4 mugs!!!

8x - 7 = 3x + 9
8x - 3x = 9 + 7
5x = 16
x = 16/5 = 3 1/5
