Question

Kami is cooking dinner for a family reunion that 21 people are attending. If her recipe calls for 1.6 ounces of ground beef per person, how much beef does Kami need altogether?

Answer 1

Kami will need 33.6 ounces of ground beef for the recipe

Explanation:

From the problem, we know that one person will use up 1.6 ounces of ground beef. We also know that there are 21 people that will be attending the party. Each of those 21 people will definitely use up 1.6 ounces of ground beef.

Hence, for the recipe to be perfect, Kami will have to use 21 X 1.6 ounces = 33.6 ounces of ground to make the recipe for the entire dinner.
