William is putting up signs on the edge of the road every 1/16 of a mile. He just put a sign down and he has 7/8 of a mile of road left in which to place his signs. He wants to determine how many more signs he should put on the edge of the road. William should put up ________ more signs.
@jhonyy9 May you try to help with this question when you have time?... I'm kind of brain dead at the moment.
oof
how many of 1/16 give to you 1 mile ? how many of 1/16 make 1 integer ? how many time you need assuming the 1/16 to result 1 ?

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jhonyy9 how many of 1/16 give to you 1 mile ? how many of 1/16 make 1 integer ? how many time you need assuming the 1/16 to result 1 ? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Would all of them be 16?
yeah
i feel dumb i did da work and got 15 i did it wrong oop
bc. 16*(1/16) =16/16 = 1
Okay
Half of 1/16 is 7/8 right?
no... it's not. scratch that
14/16 is 7/8 doubled
1/16/2 = 1/16 *1/2 = 1/32
So two more signs to go?
so 16
nope it was 14

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @IhelpUuHELPme so 16 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) No. Some signs have already been placed. 16 is the total of how many should be placed... We are trying to figure out how many more
i kept the answer in already
it was 14
i really need to be more patient
Okay, so two were already placed and 14 more to go. Let jhonny or me know if you have more questions.
