Mrs Marks has 3/5 pound of cheese.
She’s using 1/32 pound of cheese in every sandwhich.
Now, how many sandwhiches can she make with her current pound of cheese
=> ¾ / 1/32
Find the Least common multiple of both denominator since they are not the same.
=> the LCM is 32
=> ¾ = 24/32
=> 1/32
=. 24/32 X 1/32
=> 24, Mrs. Mark can make 24 sandwhiches out of her ¾ cheese.
