Question

Downtown, 8 artists were painting a mural that was 86 feet long. If they split the canvas evenly,how much will each artist get to paint? which two whole numbers does your answer lie between?

Answer 1

You would want to divide the 86 feet by the 8 artist so you would do..
86 feet / 8 artists = 10.75 feet per artist

For the second part 10.75 would fall between 10 and 11
