One plant container holds 14 tomato seedlings If you have 1113 seedlings how many containers do you need to hold all the seedlings?

It is an algebra problem:One container for 14 seedlings should have the same relationship (or ratio) as X containers for 1113 seedlings. So we get:(1 container / 14 seedlings) = (X containers / 1113 seedlings)You should always keep the units as part of the calculations.Using algebra rules we multiple both sides of the equal sign by "1113 seedlings"(1 container / 14 seedlings ) * 1113 seedlings = (X / 1113 seedlings) * 1113 seedlingsgiving(1 container / 14 seedlings ) * 1113 seedlings = X(The "1113 seedlings" in the numerator and denominator on the right side cancel each otherWhich is the same as: X = (1 container / 14 seedlings ) * 1113 seedlingsDoing the math we get:X = 79.5 containers (The "seedlings" in the numerator and denominator cancel each other).you will have 79 full containers and one half filled containersTherefore you will need to have 80 plant containers.
