There are 153 people who each ate 1/4 pounds. Therefore, the amount of watermelon eaten is 153/4 pounds.
The amount of watermelon served is





There is 186/4 total watermelon. Minus the 153/4 that was eaten,

The leftover watermelon is 8 & 1/4 pounds.
I am sorry but I do not see the underlined digit, but I will put it this way. 7 in the thousands place is worth 7000, 2 in the hundreds place is worth 200, 7 in the tens place is worth 70, and 0 in the ones place is worth 0.
Hope this helped!

7√(x²) 7√(x²)
------------- = ----------------------
5 √(y³) 5√( y^(3/2) )
We want to get the fractional exponent out of the denominator. To do this, multiply both numerator and denominator by y^(1/2):
7√(x²) 7√(x²) y^(1/2) 7√(x²)·y^(1/2) 7x√y
------------- = --------------------- * ----------- = --------------------- = ----------
5 √(y³) 5√( y^(3/2) ) y^(1/2) 5 √(y²) 5y
This is the final answer. We have succeeded in removing radicals / fractional exponents from the denominator.
Let b be the number of blue beads and g the number of green beads that Giovanni can use for a belt.
He's supposed to use a total of between 70 and 74 beads, so
70 ≤ b + g ≤ 74
The ratio of green beads to blue beads is g/b, and this ratio has to be between 1.4 and 1.6, so
1.4 ≤ g/b ≤ 1.6
For completeness, Giovanni must use at least one of either bead color, so it sort of goes without saying that this system must also include the conditions
b ≥ 0
g ≥ 0
(These conditions "go without saying" because they are implied by the others. g/b is a positive number, so either both b and g are positive, or they're both negative. But they must both be positive, because otherwise b + g would be negative. I would argue for including them, though.)
