To answer this question, we need to use the unit rate. We need to divide the total number of bags of oranges by the amount that Cassie uses by day. Then, we have:


(6(3)/(4))/((3)/(4))=(6+(3)/(4))/((3)/(4))=((24+3)/(4))/((3)/(4))=(27)/(4)\cdot(4)/(3)=(27)/(3)=9

Therefore, the bags of oranges will last 9 days.
