Respuesta :
5*3.75=18.75 18.75÷1.5 equals 12 bags with 0.75 pounds of seed left.
Answer:
We bought five 3 3/4 pound bags of bird seed.
A :
Total weight is = [tex]3\times(\frac{3}{4} )=\frac{9}{4}[/tex] pounds of bird seed.
In mixed fraction it is : [tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] pounds
B :
As given, each smaller bag contains 1 1/2 pounds, so 9/4 pounds can make:
=[tex]\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]= 18/12 = 3/2 bags
C :
We can make 1 full bag and will have left out enough for half of another bag. Half of a 3/2 pound is :
[tex]1/2(3/2)[/tex] = 3/4 of a pound.
