Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Your question isn't well written but I saw an identical question:
A bookshelf is 42 inches long. Each book is 1 1/4 inches wide. How many books will fit on the shelf?
For us to solve this, we would divide the length of the bookshelf by the width of each book. This would be:
= 42 ÷ 1 1/4
= 42 ÷ 5/4
= 42 × 4/5
= 33 3/5
Therefore, the number of books that will fit on the shelf is 33.

Answer:
3/4 divided by 1/8 Is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1/2k-3=2-3/4k
1/2k+3/4k=2+3
1.25k=5
1.25k/1.25=5/1.25
k=4
We can see that the line is horizontal so its slope is 0.
9/16 + 1/4
9+4/16
13/16
