Given that Lenox ironed 1/4 of the shirts over the weekend, and she plans to split the remainder of the work equally over the next 5 evenings, to determine what fraction of the shirts will Lenox iron each day after school, and, if lenox has 40 shirts, how many shirts will she need to go on Thursday and Friday, the following calculations must be performed:
1---
(3/4) / 5 = X
0.15 = X
15/100 = X
3/20 = X
So each day she will iron 3/20 of her shirts.
2---
40 x (3/20) x 2 = X
6 x 2 = X
12 = X
So on Thursday and Friday she will iron 12 shirts.
