Question

Ms. Jefferson is laying out a photo page. Each photo is cut to 2 3⁄4 inches wide. How many photos can she fit in a row that is 19 2⁄5 inches long if there are no spaces between the photos?

Answer 1

7 photos

Explanation:

Answer 2

First convert the mixed number into improper fractions.
2 3/4 = (4x2+3)/4 = 11/4
and
19 2/5 = (5x19+2)/5 = 97/5
Now divide the length 97/5 by the width 11/4.
we get
97/5 ÷ 11/4
= 97/5 x 4/11
=388/55
=7.05≈ 7 Photos
She can fit 7 photos in a row.
