Answer:
The number of movies that can can fit on shelf of 5 feet is 9 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The measure of each movies case = 7 inches wide
Let the number of movies for 5 feet wide = n
Now ,
∵ 1 feet = 12 inches
∴ 5 feet = 12 × 5 = 60 inches
I.e 5 feet = 60 inches
Now, Again
For 7 inches wide , the number of movies = 1
So, for 1 inch wide case, the number of movies = [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]
∴ For 60 inches wide case, the number of movies = [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] × 60
I.e For 60 inches wide case, the number of movies = 8.57 ≈ 9
Hence the number of movies that can can fit on shelf of 5 feet is 9 . Answer
