Answer: 15 [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportional relationship equation and solve how much 7 staplers weighs.

[tex]\frac{6}{13} = \frac{7}{x}[/tex]    solve by cross product

6x = 91

x = 91/6  

Now  convert 91/6  to a mixed number.

6 will go into 91  , 15 times remainder  1  so as a mixed fraction will be  15 [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
