Question

Seven ounces of pretzels are put into each bag. How many bags can be

made from 20 ¾ pounds of pretzels?

Please help

Answer 1

47

Explanation:

First, we convert 20¾ pounds into ounces.

1 lb = 16 oz

20¾ pounds * 16 oz/lb = 332 oz

Now we divide 332 oz by 7 oz.

332/7 = 47 3/7

You can make 47 full bags, and you'll have 3/7 of an ounce left.
