Question

A banner requires 1 1/3 sections of plastic. how many banners can be made from 12 sections of plastic?

Answer 1

9, i think anyway, thats just dividing 1.333 by 12

Answer 2

9 Banners.

Step-by-step explanation

If to make 1 banner we need 4/3 sections, then to get the number of banner that can be made from 12 sections, we proceed as follows.

12 ÷ 4/3 = 12 × 3/4

= (12 × 3) ÷ 4

= 36/4

= 9 Banners.
