5. Evie and sophia are planning a cement patio by their swimming pool. A contractor says the cement will weigh 61⁄3 tons. How many loads, , will it take for evie and sophia to haul all of the cement in their pickup truck, which can carry 3⁄4 ton?
divide 6 1/3 by 3/4 first, convert 6 1/3 to an improper fraction 6 1/3 --> 19/3 make the denominators match 19/3 --> 76/12 3/4 --> 9/12 then multiply 76/12 by the reciprocal of 9/12 (which is 12/9) cross reduce, you get 76/9 convert back to a mixed number 76/9 --> 8 4/9 it would take 9 loads
