Answer 1

question is number 16

95 ÷ 100 = .95

Answer 2

To find the pounds of apples in each pie, students substitute the known values into the formula
`\[ \text{Pounds per Pie} = \frac{95 \, \text{pounds}}{P} \]`

The Orchard Pie Company incorporates a total of 95 pounds of apples in its pie production.

To determine the pounds of apples used in each pie, students can employ the formula:

`\[ \text{Pounds per Pie} = \frac{\text{Total Pounds of Apples}}{\text{Number of Pies}} \]`

Given the total pounds of apples (95 pounds), the exact number of pies is undisclosed, requiring students to solve for this variable.

Assuming P represents the number of pies, the calculation becomes:

`\[ \text{Pounds per Pie} = \frac{95 \, \text{pounds}}{P} \]`

To find the pounds of apples in each pie, students substitute the known values into the formula.
