HELP Matthew works as a painter. He is currently doing a project painting a house. He is left with 7 1/5 liters of paint and one wall of a room requires approximately 1 2/3 liters of the paint. How many more walls of the rooms can he paint? A 5 B 4 C 6 D 3

C

Step-by-step explanation:

1 2/3*3 = about 5

5+1 2/3= 6 2/3<7 1/5

6 2/3+1 2/3 =8 1/3> 7 1/5

C is the best answer because it is the closest to the total amount of paint

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:
