Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To determine how many pictures Dracula can complete with the remaining paint, we'll follow these steps:

1. **Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions:**
   - **Total Paint Remaining:** $$ 4 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{19}{4} $$ containers.
   - **Paint Required per Picture:** $$ 2 \frac{1}{12} = \frac{25}{12} $$ containers.

2. **Divide the Total Paint by Paint per Picture:**
   $$
   \frac{19}{4} \div \frac{25}{12} = \frac{19}{4} \times \frac{12}{25} = \frac{228}{100} = \frac{57}{25} = 2.28
   $$

3. **Determine the Number of Complete Pictures:**
   Since Dracula can only complete whole pictures, he can make **2** full pictures with the remaining paint.

**Answer:**  
Dracula can complete 2 full pictures with the remaining paint.
Dracula can complete 2 full pictures with the remaining paint.
