We have been given that during one period extreme cold, the average daily temperature decreased $1\frac{1}{2}$ degree F each day. We are asked to find number of days it will take for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.

First of all we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction.

$1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

Now we will divide total temperature change (9) by average daily temperature change ( $\frac{3}{2}$ ) to find number of days.

$9\div\frac{3}{2}$

Dividing a number by a fraction is same as multiplying the number by reciprocal of the fraction.

$9\cdot\frac{2}{3}$

$3\cdot2=6$

Therefore, it will take 6 days for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.

What notes do I use on the first side then the 2nd side?

Answer:

I would use either a dotted half note for the first measure (equivalent to 3 beats), or use a half note and a quarter note. In the second measure I would use a half note.
