Question 1: Sam has 1/12 feet of cord to make bracelets. Each bracelet needs 1/4 foot of cord. How many bracelets can he make?
Question 2: Andre is cutting fence board from a large piece of wood 10 1/4 yards long. Each board needs to be 4/5 yard. How many whole, equal sized boards can he cut from this piece of wood?
Question 3: What is the quotient of 8/9 divided by 5? Simplify your answer if needed.
Question 4: Mallory wants to run 24 miles this month. If she can run 3/4 of a mile each day she runs, how many days will it take her to run those 24 miles?
Question 5: Reggie is making doll clothes for his little sister. He has 3 yards of fabric. If each dress uses 3/8 yard of fabric, how many dresses can he make?
Question 6: Jessie was given the problem 3 2/5÷3/10= to solve. Jessie’s work looks like this:
3 2/5 ÷ 3/10=
17/5 ÷ 3/10=
17x3
17/5 x 3/10= ---------
5x10
51/10 = 1 1/50
Jessie’s answer is incorrect. Answer the following questions about Jessie’s work.
a. Find and describe Jessie’s error.
b. What is the correct answer?
a. Jessie's error is in the step where they multiplied the fractions 17/5 and 3/10. Instead of multiplying the numerators and denominators separately, they multiplied the whole numbers 17 and 3 together and the fractions 5/10 together. This resulted in an incorrect fraction.
b. The correct answer is 51/50.

I apologize for missing some of the questions. Here are the answers to the remaining questions:
Question 1: Sam has 1/12 feet of cord to make bracelets. Each bracelet needs 1/4 foot of cord. To find the number of bracelets Sam can make, we need to divide the total amount of cord Sam has (1/12 feet) by the amount of cord needed per bracelet (1/4 foot).
So, the number of bracelets Sam can make is (1/12) / (1/4) = (1/12) * (4/1) = 4/12 = 1/3.
Therefore, Sam can make 1/3 of a bracelet.
Question 2: Andre is cutting fence board from a large piece of wood 10 1/4 yards long. Each board needs to be 4/5 yard. To find the number of whole, equal-sized boards Andre can cut from this piece of wood, we need to divide the total length of the wood (10 1/4) by the length of each board (4/5).
So, the number of boards Andre can cut is (10 1/4) / (4/5) = (41/4) / (4/5) = (41/4) * (5/4) = 205/16.
Therefore, Andre can cut 205/16 whole, equal-sized boards.
Question 3: To find the quotient of 8/9 divided by 5, we need to divide 8/9 by 5.
So, the quotient is (8/9) / 5 = (8/9) * (1/5) = 8/45.
Therefore, the quotient of 8/9 divided by 5 is 8/45.
Question 4: Mallory wants to run 24 miles in a month. If she can run 3/4 of a mile each day she runs, we need to divide the total distance Mallory wants to run (24) by the distance she runs each day (3/4).
So, the number of days it will take Mallory to run 24 miles is 24 / (3/4) = 24 * (4/3) = 96/3 = 32.
Therefore, it will take Mallory 32 days to run 24 miles.
Question 5: Reggie has 3 yards of fabric. If each dress uses 3/8 yard of fabric, to find the number of dresses Reggie can make, we need to divide the total amount of fabric Reggie has (3 yards) by the amount of fabric needed per dress (3/8 yard).
So, the number of dresses Reggie can make is (3) / (3/8) = (3) * (8/3) = 8.
Therefore, Reggie can make 8 dresses.
I apologize for the confusion and missing answers earlier. I hope this helps!
