Question

alan has 12-half pound chocolate bars. it take 1.5 of chocolate, broken into chunks to make a batch of cookies. how many batches of cookies can alan make? Please help

Answer 1

`12 / 1.5 = 8`

Answer 2

4 batches

Explanation:

Take 12 and divide it by 2, then you will get 6. This is how many pounds of chocolate Alan has. Then, you would divide 6 by 1.5

This is the answer because if you were to take 6 units of something, and put 1.5 units in groups, you would have 4 equal groups.
