Question

Carly eats a bowl of granola for breakfast every morning. She wonders how much granola she eats in a year. If Carly eats about one 48-ounce bag of granola every month, how many pounds of granola does she eat each year?

Answer 1

36 lbs

Explanation:

There are 12 months in a year.

She eats 48 ounces of granola per month.

You need to convert oz to lbs. To find lbs, you need to divide the value by 16.

48 / 16 = 3

So she eats 3 pounds of granola a month, now multiply that by how many months there are in a year.

12 * 3 = 36 lbs.

Answer 2

36 pounds of granola
