Whitman begins by comparing Lincoln to the captain of a ship and his army to a boat. The metaphor honors Lincoln and the army for helping defend and win the idea of freedom. Whitman ends the poem by saying that Lincoln, the captain, has died. The army and the United States have lost an important leader.

Chad buys peanuts in 2 pound bags. he replackages them into bags that hold 5/6 pound of peanuts. how many 2-pound bags of peanut
cricket20 [7]
First we must find the number of bags that hold 5/6 pound and that number multiplied by 5/6 must be a whole number. For example: 5/6 * 6 = 5. Also that number must be divisible by 2 ( because we have 2 pound bags of peanuts to replace ). Therefore: 5/6 * 12 = 10 pounds.
10 : 2 = 5 bags.
Answer: Chad should buy 5 ( five ) 2-pound bags of peanuts so that he can fill the 5/6-pound bags without having any peanuts left over.
