Question

Each of Bill's notebooks is 2/3 inches wide. If he has 30 inches of space remaining on his bookshelf, how many notebooks will fit?

Answer 1

∵ The width of the notebook is 2/3 inches

∵ The length of the space is 30 inches

→ To find the number of the notebooks can put there divide 30 by 2/3

`\therefore N=(30)/(((2)/(3)))=30*(3)/(2)=(90)/(2)=45`

∴ The number of the notebook is 45

We can fit 45 notebooks on the space
