Answer:
[tex]\text{2 bags are filled if Claire puts }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\text{Given that Claire made }\frac{1}{2}\text{ pound of trail mix. If she puts } \frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag, }[/tex]
we have to find the number of bags.
[tex]\text{Capacity of }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix in 1 bag}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Capacity of }1\text{ pound of trail mix in }\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}=4 bags}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Capacity of }\frac{1}{2}\text{ pound of trail mix in }4\times \frac{1}{2}=2 bags[/tex]
[tex]\text{Hence, 2 bags are filled if Claire puts }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag}[/tex]
