Linda has a shelf that is 56 over 5 inches wide. how many catalogs can linda arrange on the shelf if each catalog is 4 over 5 of an inch thick?

First point to be noted here is, the shelf and the book are 5 inches wide. So it is perfect to hold the book.

The shelf is 56 inches tall and the book is 4 inches thick. To find the number of books Linda can arrange on the shelf, just divide 56 by 4

Number of books Linda can arrange on the shelf = 56 ÷ 4 = 14 books

14

Step-by-step explanation:

56 over 5 divided by 4 over 5. 56 over 5 times 5 over 4. 280 over 20. Reduced to 14. Hope this helps!!!
