Answer:

In each bag there will be 1.82 ounces of mixture.

Explanation:

Since Irene is making bags of trail mix for hiking club, and she will use 22 ounces of walnuts, 11.2 ounces of almonds, and 12.3 ounces of cashews to make 25 bags of trail mix, to determine how many ounces are in each bag you must perform the following calculation:

(22 + 11.2 + 12.3) / 25 = X

45.5 / 25 = X

1.82 = X

Thus, in each bag there will be 1.82 ounces of mixture.
