Answer:

oranges lasts for 9 days

Explanation:

To find out the number of days, we have to divide the total oranges by the quatity of oranges used each day.

Number of days = Total oranges ÷ number of oranges used per day


\sf = 7(7)/(8) \ / (7)/(8)\\\\ = (63)/(8) \ / (7)/(8)\\\\ =(63)/(8) * (8)/(7)\\\\ = 9

Fraction division:

Keep the first fraction

Change division to multiplication

Flip the second fraction
