    Answer: However, in real life it depends on the shape of the actual presents. If two sheets are used for the 2 presents. There should be enough left from those sheets to use for the third present. (They should be taped together.)

    Step-by-step explanation: 6/3 then 3 over 8 - -> 3/8

    6 / 27/8

    = 6/1 / divide 27/8

    = 6^2 / 1 x 8/27 ^9 (^) - --> this mean square root of 2 or 9

    6 cancels and 27 cancel

    = 16/9

    =1 7/9

    However you will still need to buy 2 sheets
