Connor used 5/6 inch of wire to make a small hook. How many hooks can he make with 10 inches of wire?

Here's the expression you can use to solve this:

let x = number of hooks Connor can make

5/6x ≤ 10

(6/5) 5/6x ≤ 10 (6/5) Now, multiply by the fraction's reciprocal to isolate x.

x ≤ 12 This means that Connor can make 12 hooks with 10 inches of wire.
