Question

It takes 900 pounds of steel to make one steel beam. How many beams can be made from 6,300 pounds of steel?

Answer 1

Answer:

7 beams

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many beams can be made from steel, we have to find how many times 900 goes into 6,300. So our equation is:

6,300 ÷ 900 = 7

So you can make 7 beams out of 6,300 pounds of steel (and you won't have any steel left.)

Answer 2

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

6,300 divide by 900 would equal 7
