Please somebody can check out if my answers are correct and help me with # 5 and # 6. Thanks
what did you get for 5 again?
1 1/3
hmmm
\(\bf 10\frac{2}{3}\div \cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{32}{3}\div \cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{32}{3}\times \cfrac{4}{3}\implies \cfrac{128}{9}\implies 14{\color{brown}{ \frac{2}{9} }}\) notice the remainder
as far as number 9... one sec
\(\bf 15\frac{5}{8}\div\cfrac{7}{10}\implies \cfrac{125}{8}\div\cfrac{7}{10}\implies \cfrac{125}{8}\times\cfrac{10}{7}\implies \cfrac{1250}{56} \\ \quad \\ \cfrac{625}{28}\implies 22\frac{9}{28}\) so, he can make a total of 22 full bowls, and then 9/28 of other he already made 8 he can make 22 full ones how many more can he make? well 22 -8
for # 5 he had only 10 2/3 of fertilizer
For question #5, as @jdoe0001 said, she will be able to fertilize 9 plants and the rest 2/9 is the amount of fertilizer left. I also have remarks regarding questions #1, #2, and #3. For #1, you need to subtract the stamp's length from the strip ie. (21 1/8) - (1 1/7)
For #2, I think you should specify that just 35/38 is left over not 5 35/38. For #3, it makes more sense if you divide the length of the track by the number of markers ie. (5 1/8) / 6 and then multiply that distance by 4 to get the distance he hiked so far.
Thanks jdoe and math&ing001 for your help
