Jerry is using 3 1/2 pounds of ground beef to make hamburgers for a pool party. If he's making quarter-pound hamburgers, how many hamburgers can he make?

first, make 3 1/2 an improper fraction

7/2

Then change its denominator to 4
14/4

14 is the max amount of hamburgers he can make

Hope this helps!
