Step-by-step explanation

From the question, we can see that 32 ounces of filling was used to fill 3 trays with 8 empanadas each.

This implies that the total number of empanadas made was


8*3=24

Therefore,


\begin{gathered} 32\text{ }ounces\rightarrow24\text{ }empanadas \\ \therefore xounces\rightarrow1empanada \\ xounces=(24)/(32)=(3)/(4) \end{gathered}

Answer: 3/4 ounces
