Answer 1

Full Question:

At Best Burgers, Jack collected sales data on the type of side order served with each type of burger purchased for a week. Jack serves a half pound of onion rings with every kind of burger. If Jack sells 120 bacon cheeseburgers total, about how many pounds of onion rings will he serve with them? (round to nearest whole number)

A) 15 pounds

B) 18 pounds

C) 30 pounds

D) 54 pounds

Answer:

30 pounds of onion rings he will serve with cheeseburgers.

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Onion rings with bacon cheese burgers =
`(40)/(41+40) = (40)/(81) = 0.4938`

Multiply the onion rings with total bacon cheeseburgers sold,
`120 * 0.4938 = 59.256`

Since Jack serves a half pound of onion rings with every kind of burger, multiplication of 0.50 with total onion rings of bacon cheese burger is found out.

Half pound = .50

`59.256 * .50 = 29.628`

Rounding 29.628 to the nearest value, 30 pounds is the correct answer among give options.
