Answer:

You can make 10 tortillas with one and a half kilograms of ground meat

Explanation:

one and a half kilograms to grams

1.5kg x 1000 = 1500g

150 grams prepared to make 1 hamburger

than, 150 x h = 1500

h = 1500 / 150

h = 10

Answer:

10 tortillas

Explanation:

First convert kilograms to grams:

1 kg = 1000 g

⇒ 1.5 kg = 1500 g

Let x = number of tortillas made with 1500 g of meat

Set up a ratio of tortillas and meat and solve for x:

⇒ 1 tortilla : x tortillas = 150 g meat : 1500 g meat


\sf \implies (1)/(x)=(150)/(1500)


\sf \implies 1 \cdot 1500= 150 \cdot x


\sf \implies 1500=150x


\implies \sf x=(1500)/(150)


\implies \sf x=10

Therefore, 10 tortillas can be made with 1.5 kg of ground meat.
