Final answer:
By dividing the total weight of the ground beef by the weight of one hamburger, it is determined that 256 hamburgers each weighing 1/8 of a kilogram can be made from 32 kilograms of ground beef.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate how many hamburgers each weighing 1/8 of a kilogram can be made from 32 kilograms of ground beef, you use division to split the total amount of beef into individual portions of the specified size. Here's how you would do it:
- First, you determine how many 1/8 kg portions are in a single kilogram. Since 1 divided by 1/8 equals 8, there are 8 portions of 1/8 kg in 1 kg of beef.
- Next, you multiply the number of portions in a single kilogram by the total number of kilograms you have. So, 8 portions per kilogram times 32 kilograms equals 256 hamburgers.
In conclusion, you would be able to make 256 hamburgers, each weighing 1/8 of a kilogram, from 32 kilograms of ground beef.
