Recipe for Pasta Noodles
Ingredients
3 1/2 cups of flour
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons of olive oil
A chef uses 166 1/4 cups of flour each week to make noodles. How many pounds of noodles does the chef make each week?
28 1/2
47 1/2
53 1/4
55 1/2
Pounds of noodles made per week = Total cups of flour used each week / flour used per pound
= 166 1/4 ÷ 3 1/2
= 665/4 ÷ 7/2
= 665/4 ÷ 2/7
= (665*2)/(4*7)
= 1330/28
= 47.5 pounds
Pounds of noodles made per week = 47 1/2 pounds
