Answer 1

anyone knows what i need to do.?????

Answer 2

since 2.5 quarts is not a unit it needs to be divided by itself to get 1 quart

whatever you do to one value you need to do to the other; sooo, 1.95/2.5

and since its asking for cents, we can ignore the decimal: 195/2.5 cents

Answer 3

the others are the same process

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6

2.25 :: 300 tissues cents/100tissues

divide each side by 3 to get it in terms of 100 tissues
