Question

Kia has 2 1/4 pounds of peppermint candies. She wants to put them in small bags, each about 3/8 of a pound . How many small bags of candies can she make?

Answer 1

Explanation:

When I am dealing with fractions I put them in money wise so 2 1/4 would be like 2.25 and 3/8 would be like 0.75.

So that means you divide 2.25 by 0.75 and that will give you three.

Therefore Kia can make 3 small bags of candies.
