Question

If Tonya bought 1/6 pounds of bologna and 3/8 pounds of ham and 2/4 pound turkey and that cost $5.99 what is the total number of pounds of meat processed

Answer 1

25/24 pounds of total meat processed.

Explanation:

We have been given pounds of bologna and 3/8 pounds of ham and 2/4 pound turkey

And we need to find the total number of pounds of meat processed.

The total number will be calculated by finding their sum of all the meats which is

1/6+3/8+2/4

Taking LCM of (6,8,4)=24 hence, we get:

1/6+3/8+2/4= 25/24
