3x5 = 15 ounces of rasins

48 - 15 = 33 ounces of almonds
One bag of trail mix - 5 ounces of raisins (almonds - ?)
Question: How many ounces of almonds are in each bag of trail mix?

3 bags of trail mix - 48 ounces of trail mix altogether

48 divided by 3 = 16
16 ounces of trail mix altogether in one bag.
There were only 5 ounces of raisins so 16 - 5 = 11. There are 11 ounces of almonds in each bag of trail mix.
