Question

Felipe has 3/4 acre of land to use for a vegetable garden. He separates the land into vegetable plots that are each 1/12 acre. How many vegetable plots does Felipe have? Explain how to use the number line to model this situation and find the answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) The number of vegetable plot Filipe has = 9 vegetable plots

2) A number line with 1/12 divisions will give the number of 1/12 acre vegetable  plots as the number of divisions between 0 and 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The total size of the land Filipe has = 3/4 acre

The size of the vegetable plots to which he separates the land = 1/12 acre

The number of vegetable plot Filipe has = (The total size of the land Filipe has)/(The size of the vegetable plots to which he separates the land )

∴ The number of vegetable plot Filipe has = (3/4)/(1/12) = 9

The number of vegetable plot Filipe has = 9 vegetable plots

2) The number line can be used to model the situation by having the number line that has divisions of 1/12 unit and counting the number of 1/12 divisions between the zero (0) mark and the three quarter (3/4) mark

Answer 2

PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST!!

answer:  

9 plots  

explanation:  

Felipe has 3/4 acres of land to use and she is dividing that into plots. Those plots are 1/12 of her acre so you divide 3/4 by 1/12
