Mr.Cumme has 5 bags of jelly beans for his classroom. Each bag is 7/8 full. Which expression can be used to represent the total amount of full bags of jelly beans?- A. 7 divided by (8x5)- B. (5X7) divided by 8- C. 8 divided by (7X5)- D. 6x ( 7 divided by 5)

Sagot :

Consider that the coefficient for the number of full bags is 7/8 and the number of bags is 5. By divinding these numbers you get the total amount of full bags:

[tex]\frac{\frac{7}{8}}{\frac{5}{1}}=\frac{7}{5\times8}[/tex]

when we have used division between fractions (Notice what we added a 1 denominator to 5).

Hence, the answer:

A. 7 divided by (8 x 5)
