Final answer:
To find the number of ounces in each bag of trail mix, we add up the weight of all the nuts and divide by the number of bags. The total weight is 56.5 ounces, and dividing this by 25 bags, we find that each bag contains approximately 2.26 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asked is how many ounces are in each bag of trail mix Gabriella is making for her hiking club. She has a total of 22 ounces of walnuts, 11.1 ounces of almonds, and 23.4 ounces of cashews. To find the weight of each bag, you need to add the weights of all the nuts together and then divide by the number of bags.
Firstly, let's calculate the total weight of all the nuts combined:
- Walnuts: 22 ounces
- Almonds: 11.1 ounces
- Cashews: 23.4 ounces
Total weight = 22 + 11.1 + 23.4 = 56.5 ounces
Next, divide the total weight by the number of bags to find the weight per bag:
Ounces per bag = Total weight ÷ Number of bags
56.5 ounces ÷ 25 bags = 2.26 ounces per bag
Therefore, each bag of trail mix will weigh approximately 2.26 ounces.
