Answer:

8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a fraction. Let "x" be the variable.

[tex]\frac{-2.25}{1}=-\frac{18}{x}[/tex]

Step 1: Apply fraction cross multiply

[tex]\left(-2.25\right)x=-1\cdot \:18[/tex]

Step 2: Simplify

[tex]-2.25x=-18[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by [tex]-2.25[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-2.25x}{-2.25}=\frac{-18}{-2.25}[/tex]

Step 4: Simplify

[tex]x=8[/tex]
