There are 7 gallons of black paint available to motorola. If 5/9 gallons is used each run. To find the amount of runs you can paint, you have to divide the total by the amount for each run.

$7 \div \frac{5}{9}$

When dividing fractions, you have to keep, change, and flip.

$Keep\ 7 \\ Change\ \div\ to\ \times \\ Flip \frac{5}{9} = \frac{9}{5}$

Your new equation is:

$7 \times \frac{9}{5}$

Multiply:

$7 \times \frac{9}{5} = \frac{63}{5} = 12 \frac{3}{5}$

You can paint $12 \frac{3}{5}$ or $12.6$ runs.
