You would need 7 freezer bags because you have to turn both fractions into improper fractions. to get that you have to multiply 15 by 4 and then add 3 so you get 63/1. Then for the next fraction, you multiply 4 by 2 and then add 1 so you get 9/1.

Now you have to divide the 2 fractions to find out how many freezer bags you need. So it would look like this. 63/1 divided by 9/1.
To divide fractions, you use the rule  (keep, change, flip) 
So you keep the first fraction 63/1 but you change to division sign to multiplication and lastly you flip the second fraction from 9/1 to 1/9 and now you multiply so it looks like this.

63/1 x 1/9 and you get 63/9 which equals 7 freezer bags. 

I hope this helped you?? :)

In the graphic below,

The external angle is suplementary to the internal angle close to it. We also know that the sum of all the internal angles of the triangle are equal to 180 degrees, this means that the angle "a" is suplementary to the sum of the angles "b" and "c". Through this logic, we can conclude that since:

\begin{gathered} \angle d=180-\angle a \\ \angle b+\angle c=180-\angle a \end{gathered}

Then we can conclude that:

\angle d=\angle b+\angle c

Therefore the statement is true, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles.

Let's use an example:

On this example, the external angle is 120 degrees, therefore the sum of the remote interior angles must also be equal to that. Let's try:

x=75+45=120

The sum of the remote interior angles is equal to the external angle.
