Answer:

6 1/4

Explanation:

1. The question is asking if you combined all the glitter from the paper chains that used 1 1/4 ounces, how much glitter would there be in total.

2. To find all the glitter from the paper chains that utilized 5/4 or 1 1/4 ounces, you multiply 5/4 by 5 because according to the line plot, there were 5 paper chains with 5/4 ounces of glitter.

3.


  • (5)/(4) * 5

  • (25)/(4)

  • 6 (1)/(4)

Therefore, if you combined all the glitter from the paper chains that used exactly 1 1/4 ounces, you'd get 6 1/4 ounces.
