Question

Cheryl is organizing her movie collection. If each movie case is 3/4 inch wide, how many movies can fit on a shelf 5 1/4 wide?

Answer 1

I believe she could fit 7 movies onto the shelf

Explanation:

first what I did was I turned the 5 1/4 into 21/4. Then I divided 21 by 3 (5 1/4 ÷ 3/4) in order to get the amount of movies. That equaled 7

The answer would be that she could fit 7 movies on the shelf.
