Ok, so first you have to take the 5/6th off. This would be 24 4/6 - 5/6th which would be 23 and 5/6ths. The next step would be to turn the 5/6 into a decimal. That would be 0.83333 so 23.83 divided by 11. The answer would be 2.166363664 according the the calculator. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
Answer:
[tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex] foot
Step-by-step explanation:
John has a roll containing [tex]24\frac{2}{3}[/tex] feet of wrapping paper.
He must cut off [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] feet.
Now the left over wrapping paper = [tex]24\frac{2}{3}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{74}{3}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{148-5}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{143}{6}[/tex]
= [tex]23\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
He wants to divide the left over wrapping paper into 11 pieces.
[tex]23\frac{5}{6}[/tex] ÷ 11
[tex]\frac{143}{6}[/tex] ÷ 11
[tex]\frac{143}{6}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{143}{66}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{13}{6}[/tex]
[tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex] foot
Each piece would be [tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex] foot long.
