Imagine you and your friends are making hot dogs. A complete hot dog consists of a wiener and a bun. At the store, you buy four packages of eight wieners and three bags of 10 buns. 1. How many total hot dogs can you make

Answer 1

30 hot dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that :

There are 4 packets of eight wieners, i.e. 4 x 8 = 32 wieners

There are 3 bags of ten buns, i.e. 3 x 10 = 30 buns

One hot dogs need 1 bun and 1 wiener to make a hot dog.

There are 30 buns, so 30 hot dogs can be made out by using all the 30 buns and the 30 wieners out of the 32 wieners.

Therefore, 30 hot dogs.

And the number of extra wieners left = 32 - 30 = 2 wieners.
