Step-by-step explanation:

Lower bound means the fewest number of glasses of water.

To get that , we need the smallest possible capacity of water bottle and biggest possible capacity of drinking glass.

Smallest possible capacity of water bottle = 24.5 litres

Biggest possible capacity of drinking glass = 0.34 litres

Lower bound for drinking glasses = 24.5/ 0.34

= 72.05

= 73

b) 1/3 * 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

each smallest part is 1/15 since the written one is 1/5 and it's divided by 3 equal parts. (1/5 )/3 = 1/15 = 1/3 * 1/5

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"

at 12" per foot, that is 14 feet, 7 inches.
