why well if you think of breaking down by say 1/4 of 168 all you do is divide 4 which is the whole amount by 0.2 which is the amount the father gave her so 4/0.2= 20 the you take your whole 168 and divide by 20 which the whole number for 0.2 the your answer should be this 168/20= 8.4 which then i assumed it was $8.40 hopefully that is correct hehe
Divide 5 1/2, or 11/2 by 3/4. You can do that by multiplying 11/2 and 4/3 to get 44/6. Simplify and you get 22/3, which is about 7.33 or 7 1/3. If he can only paint whole dog houses, the answer is 7.
