Answer:
6 tomato plants
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]18\frac{1}{6}= \frac{18\times6+1}{6}=\frac{108+1}{6}= \frac{109}{6}[/tex]
[tex]2\frac{2}{3}= \frac{2\times3+2}{3}=\frac{6+2}{3}= \frac{8}{3}[/tex]
then the number of tomato plants that Jordan will be able to put a fence around using this roll :
[tex]\frac{\frac{109}{6}}{\frac{8}{3}}= \frac{109}{6}}\times\frac{3}{8} = \frac{109}{2}}\times\frac{1}{8}= \frac{109}{16} = 6.8125[/tex]
then he can put fence only around 6 plants.
