Answer:
2 bags filled and [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] granola left
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a large bag contains [tex]\frac{12}{15}[/tex] pounds of granola .
We have to find how many[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] bags can be filled with given amount of granola and how much left over.
Total amount of granola =[tex]\frac{12}{15}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Amount in one bag=[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Number of bags=[tex]\frac{4}{5}\div \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Number of bags=[tex]\frac{4}{5}\times 3[/tex]
Number of bags=[tex]\frac{12}{5}=2\frac{2}{5}=2+\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Therefore, number of bags=2
Because bag number cannot be in fraction
Amount of granola left =[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
