HELLPPP MEEEE
Fill in the blanks below Victoria plans to repaint some classroom bookcases. She has 2 gallons of paint. All of the bookcases are the same size and each requires one eigtht
gallon of paint. How many bookcases will she be able to paint?
To solve, we'll need to A multiply 1/8 by 2, B we'll need to divide 2 by 1/8 because we know the SIZE of the groups and the ,A number of groups, B total gallons of paint, but we don't know the , A Number of groups, B total gallons of paint
To solve this problem, we'll need to divide 2 gallons of paint by 1/8 gallon per bookcase.
A) Multiply 1/8 by 2:
1/8 * 2 = 2/8 = 1/4
So, each bookcase requires 1/4 gallon of paint.
B) Divide 2 by 1/4:
2 ÷ 1/4 = 2 * 4 = 8
Therefore, Victoria will be able to paint 8 bookcases with the 2 gallons of paint she has.
To find the number of bookcases Victoria will be able to paint, we can follow these steps:
A) Multiply 1/8 by 2:
1/8 * 2 = 2/8
B) Divide 2 by 1/8:
2 ÷ 1/8 = 2 * 8/1 = 16/1 = 16
Therefore, Victoria will be able to paint 16 bookcases.
To solve this problem, we need to multiply 1/8 by 2 to find out how much paint is needed for each bookcase.
1/8 gallon * 2 = 1/4 gallon
So each bookcase requires 1/4 gallon of paint.
Now, we need to divide 2 by 1/4 to find out how many bookcases Victoria will be able to paint.
2 gallons ÷ 1/4 gallon = 8 bookcases
Therefore, Victoria will be able to paint 8 bookcases.
