What number does the expression $5 \times 10+3 \times 1+2 \times \frac{1}{10}+7 \times \frac{1}{1,000}$ represent?

Answer: Split the stamps between the pages

If x= number of 6 stamp pages and y = number of 9 stamp pages, then we can use a formula.
6x + 9y = 78 stamps
Or.... You could divide the total number of stamps (78) by 9 which would give you 8 and 6 as a remainder. Therefore, 8 pages would have 9 stamps and 1 page would have 6 stamps,

Geri can use a total of 78 stamps by placing 6 stamps on several pages and 9 stamps on other pages. By setting up the equation 6 x + 9 y = 78 and simplifying it, we can find different combinations of pages. Valid combinations include pages with 6 stamps and pages with 9 stamps, such as 10 pages with 6 stamps and 2 pages with 9 stamps.
