Divide each component by 3 to get
26/3 = 8.667
and
3/3 = 1
So 26 points/ 3 quarters = 8.667 points/1 quarter

The anwser is 8\[the anwser is 8 2/3 points /1quater\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the anwser is 8 and 2/3 over 3 quarters
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
ah so they want a mixed number
26/3 = (24+2)/3 = 24/3 + 2/3 = 8 + 2/3 = 8 2/3
This means that 26/3 = 8 2/3
So the final answer is then
8 2/3 points over 1 quarter

oh and you're still dividing the bottom component 3 by 3 to get 3/3 = 1, so that doesn't change
