Question

Harrison ordered 6 cases of pickles for his restaurants. Each case contained p jars of pickles. Harrison delivered an equal number of jars to each of his 7 restaurants. Which expression represents the number of jars of pickles that each restaurant received?

Answer 1

6/7p because 6 cases divided by 7 restuarants

Answer 2

6 cases ordered
'p' jars in each case
Total number of jars is    (6 cases) x (p jars/case)  =  6p jars

Split 7 ways, each restaurant gets (1/7) of the total order = 6p/7 jars.

I sure hope 'p' is a multiple of 7, or else Harrison might
need to deal with the number of pickles in each jar.
