Answer:
The teacher sets up 7 work stations in each of the 2 classrooms.
Explanation:
1. Find the number of work stations in all. We can find the number of work stations by dividing the amount of clay by the amount of clay that will be in each work station. 7/8 is the amount she has and 1/16 is how many that will be in each work station. 7/8 divided by 1/16 is equal to 7/8 * 16/1, and if you cross cancel, you would get 14.
2. Find how many are in each classroom. Since we know that we have 14 workstations in all, and that there are two classrooms, to find the amount in each, you have to divide 14/2. 14/2 = 7
