Rewrite 5 1/4 as an improper fraction:

Multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction then add the numerator of the fraction and put over the denominator:

5 x 4 = 20 + 1 = 21

5 1/4 = 21/4

Ow divide the total amount (21/4) by the amount in each bag (5/8)

21/4 / 5/8

When dividing by a fraction flip the second fraction over and then multiply straight across:

21/4 / 5/8 = 21/4 x 8/5 = (21 x 8) / (4 x5) = 168/20 = 8 8/20 = 8 2/5 bags

He can fill 8 full bags and 2/5 of a other bag

the answer to the question is a

step-by-step explanation:

it has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

y + 11 = -7/9(x - 18)

y + 11 =-7/9x + 14

b

y = -7/9x + 3

y-intercept (0, 3)
