Use 1lb = 0.45kg and do not round any computations

135kg÷.45kg= 300lbs
1.3oz per 1 pound
1.3×300=390 oz

Answer:

The company needs 390 oz of filler.

Step-by-step explanation:

One factory obtained 135 kg of beef from overseas.

They want to add 1.3oz of filler for each pound of beef.

Given is:

0.45 kg = 1 pound

So, 135 kg = [tex]\frac{135}{0.45}[/tex] = 300 pounds

The company want to add 1.3 oz of filler for each pound of beef.

So, for 300 pounds they will need = [tex]300\times1.3=390[/tex] oz of filler.

Therefore, the company needs 390 oz of filler.
