Answer:
Chad can divide his rope in 21 pieces. (Answer B)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve we divide.
15 divided by 5/7 is what we need to know.
When dividing fractions it is the same thing as multiplying by the reciprocal (flipped version of the fraction).
[tex]15[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex] = 15 × [tex]\frac{7}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{15}{1}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{7}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{105}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{105}{5}[/tex] = 21
