Respuesta :

snog

Answer:

7 bows

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the numbers are [tex]1\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]8\frac{3}{4}[/tex]. To find the answer, we can do:

[tex]8\frac{3}{4} / 1\frac{1}{4}\\ = \frac{35}{4} / \frac{5}{4} \\= \frac{35}{4} * \frac{4}{5}\\= \frac{35}{5}[/tex]

= 7 bows
