Explanation:
the numbers are a bit cut off at the top.
do I understand it correctly that the question is when the balloon loses 6/8 of a cubic foot of air ?
if so, I need to point out that the balloon loses 1/8 of a cubic foot per day.
so, how many days until it loses 6/8 if a cubic foot ?
well, 6 times that of 1/8 of a cubic foot = 6 days.
