Sammi's box is 9/10 full of art supplies, if sammi's box weighs 14 pounds, how much do the art supplies weigh?

Answer 1

Hello Niasia,

To find the answer:

Multiply 9/10 x 14, since the question being asked here is "What is 9/10 of 14?"

9/10 x 14 = 9/10 x 14/1 = 126/10 (63/5 when reduced into lowest terms, or simplest form) = 12.6.

Therefore, your answer is that the art supplies weigh 12.6 pounds.
