A group of friends on a camping trip has 325 lb of trail mix. They divide it up evenly among themselves. Each person gets 15 lb of the trail mix. How many friends are on the camping trip?

325 lb brought

15 lb each

so

325/15 = 21.6 people

or 21 people can get a full 15 lbs and 1 person gets .6 of 15 lb or 9 lb
