Answer:

7 statues

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Divide the paint remaining by the paint required by each statue (We are doing this because [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] is 1 statue, so to find how many we need, divide [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex] by that.)

[tex]\frac{7}{8}\div \frac{1}{8}\\\\\frac{7}{8}\times \frac{8}{1}\\\\=\frac{7}{1}\\\\= 7[/tex]

Therefore, Diana can paint 7 statues.
