There are 5 ¾ feet of lights to wrap around a pillar. Every time the lights wrap around, it uses up ⅛ ft of the lights. How many times can the lights be wrapped around the pillar?

46

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that there are 5 ¾ feet of lights to wrap around a pillar and that every time the lights wrap around, it uses up ⅛ ft of the lights.

The number of times that the lights can be wrapped around the pillar will be:

= 5 ¾ feet ÷ ⅛ ft

= 23/4 / 1/8

= 23/4 × 8

= 46 times

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
