Final answer:
Michaela has enough shrimp for her party since she has 80 ounces, and the total amount required for 10 people to eat 7 ounces each is 70 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Michaela is planning a party and has bought 5 pounds of shrimp. She needs to determine if she will have enough shrimp if each of the 10 guests consumes approximately 7 ounces of shrimp. We know that 5 pounds is equivalent to 80 ounces (since 1 pound = 16 ounces). If each person eats 7 ounces, the total amount of shrimp needed would be 10 people multiplied by 7 ounces per person, which equals 70 ounces. Comparing the amount of shrimp Michaela purchased (80 ounces) with the amount required (70 ounces), we can see that she will have enough shrimp for the party, with a little extra left over.
