Answer:

7 by 24 of barbecue items would be considered as mushroom caps

Explanation:

The fraction of barbecue items considered as mushroom caps is given below:

Let us assume the number of barbecue items be x

So,

x = Veggies burgers of barbecue + corn cobs of barbecue + mushroom caps of barbecue

Now

Veggies burgers of barbecue = (3 ÷ 8)x

corn cobs of barbecue = (1 ÷ 3)x

And, we assume the mushroom caps of barbecue be y

Now the equation would be

x = (3 ÷ 8)x + (1 ÷ 3)x + y

Now multiplied by 24 to both the sides

24x = 9x + 8x + 24y

24x = 17x + 24y

24y = 24x - 17x

24y = 7x

y = (7 ÷ 24)x

This means that 7 by 24 of barbecue items would be considered as mushroom caps
