Answer 2

There are 22 quarters in $5\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A quarter means one-fourth of something.

So, to find the quarters of any quantity, we can simply divide the quantity by $\frac{1}{4}$

Here, the given quantity is $5\frac{1}{2}$

But, first converting the given mixed fraction into an improper fraction.

$5\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{11}{2}$

Now, dividing, we will obtain

$\frac{(11/2)}{(1/4)}$

On solving, we get 22 as the answer.
