Answer: 14, because the number of catalogs is 56 over 5 divided by 4 over 5.

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Linda has a shelf that is 56/5 inches wide and that each catalog is 4/5 of an inch thick?

The number of catalogs that Linda can arrange on the shelf will be:

= 56/5 ÷ 4/5

= 56/5 × 5/4

= 56/4

= 14
