Astorage compartment for a gym locker room can hold up to 7 folded towels. there are 22 compartements for towels. katie has 150 towels to fold and put away. how many of the compartments will be filled? how many towels will be in a compartment that is not completely filled.

3 towels in the partially unfilled compartment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 22 into 150 towels to find the number of compartments will be filled:

150/22 = 21.43 towels into 22 compartments.  

This tells us that 21 compartments will be filled with 7 towels each, but the 22nd compartment will be only partially filled.  To determine how many towels will be in the incompletely filled compartment, multiply 0.43 by 7:  Roughly 3 towels.
