Answer 2

Andrea,

 

If you divided 64 by 5/8, then you would get a number larger than 64. 

 

To get the answer, multiply 64 * 5/8. So find what 64*5 is then divide that number by 8. 64*5=320. 8 goes into 32 4 times, so it goes into 320 40 times. So your answer is 40. 

 

Hope this helps,

Brittany

Answer 3

Andrea,

 

Actually, you need to multiply 5/8 times 64. "of" means multiply.

 

5/8 x 64 = 5/8 x 64/1 = 5/1 x 8/1 = 40  (I cancelled the 8 across the two fractions to make it easier to multiply.)

 

40 students gave their speeches.
