Mrs lemke has 10 2/3 ounces of fertilizer for her plants. she plans to use 3/4 ounce of fertilizer om each plant. after she put fertilizer on as many plants as she can, how much fertilizer will be left over

What we know:
Mrs Lemke has a total of 10 2/3 oz of fertilizer
3/4 oz fertilizer per plant

What we need to find is left over fertilizer after equally distributing as much 3/4 oz of fertilizer per plant.

10 2/3 oz must be divided into groups of 3/4 oz
Those groups will show how many plants can be fertilized with each receiving 3/4 oz of fertilizer and the remainder will be the left over fertilizer in ounces we need to find.

First we must change 10 2/3 into an improper fraction of 32/3.
Now, we divide 32/3 by 3/4.
(32/3)/(3/4)=(32/3)x(4/3)
(32x4)/(3x3)=128/9

128/9 equals to 14 with a remainder of 2/9
That means Mrs Lemke can fertilize 14 plants with 3/4 oz of fertilizer each and have left over of 2/9 ounces.
Your answer is the remainder which is 2/9 ounces.
