Emma is making posters by hand to advertise her school play, but her posters are not the same

length as a standard sheet of paper (the width is the same, though). She has 3 1/2 sheets of paper
left over, which she says is enough to make 2 1/3 posters. How many sheets of paper (and parts of
a sheet) does each poster use?
