a large bag of cashews weighs 8 1/3 pounds. one serving is 1/3 pound. how many servigs are in the bag
Take the total pound and divide it with the serving size.
I converted the \(8 \frac{1}{3}\) into an improper fraction which becomes \(\frac{25}{3}\)
Divide \(\frac{25}{3}\) ÷ \(\frac{1}{3}\) which becomes:
\(\frac{25}{3}\) × \(\frac{3}{1}\) = \(\frac{75}{3}\) which simplifies to 25.
So there are 25 servings.
Answer:
Take the total pound and divide it with the serving size.
I converted the 8 \frac{1}{3}831 into an improper fraction which becomes \frac{25}{3}325
Divide \frac{25}{3}325 ÷ \frac{1}{3}31 which becomes:
\frac{25}{3}325 × \frac{3}{1}13 = \frac{75}{3}375 which simplifies to 25.
So there are 25 servings.
