1: it is saying, six people are sleeping, to find total it is 8 1/2 + 8 1/2 + 8 1/2 + 8 1/2 + 8 1/2 + 8 1/2. and your answer came out to be 51. TRUE :)
2: 6 1/2 * 1 1/2 is 13/2 * 3/2 which is 39/4! this is really 9 3/4 WHICH IS NOT 10! Oliva is wrong! hahaha! so that is your answer <#
THANK YOU SO MUCH :)
