Question

a printer cartridge with 3 4/5 milliliters of ink will print off 2 2/4 reams of paper how many mililiters of ink will it take to print 2 reams?

Answer 1

`3(4)/(5)\text{ milliliters of ink -----2}(2)/(4)\text{ reams}`
`(19)/(5)\text{ milliliters of ink -----}(10)/(4)\text{ reams}`

I converted the integer part to a fraction

`2\text{ reams =}\frac{2\text{ }(19)/(5)}{(10)/(4)}=(76)/(25)=3.04`
