1/7 gallon = 1 batch
<em>[multiply by 7 through]</em>
1 gallon = 7 batches
<em>[multiply by 8/9 through]</em>
8/9 gallon = 7 x 8/9
8/9 gallon = 6 2/9
<em>[Good enough to make 6 batches, not enough to make 7 batches]</em>
So he can make 6 batches of collard green
<span>5-x=12

Whenever there is a fraction in the exponent, the numerator is under the square root, and the denominator is on the outside of the square root!
Additionally, since the negative is outside of the square toot, then it also outside of the parenthesis.
One and a half = 1.5
Three and a half = 3.5
1.5 + 3.5 = 5.
