Question

mrs.brady made
`8 (1)/(4)`quarts of peach preserves.if each jar holds
`(3)/(4)`quart of preserves,how many jars will she need to hold these preserves?

Answer 1

Mrs, Brady made 8 1/4 quarts of peach preserves.

Each jar holds (3/4) quart of preserves.

So, to find the number of jars, divide the total he made by the amount of jar

So,

The number of jars =

`(8(1)/(4))/((3)/(4))=8(1)/(4)\cdot(4)/(3)=(33)/(4)\cdot(4)/(3)=(33)/(3)=11`

So, she will need 11 jars
