Answer:
Ans. a. Anouk make with the meat she has 19 hamburgers; b. Anouk can make 38 slices with 4.75 pounds of meat.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, well, all we have to do is divide the amount of meat by the weight of 1 burger to find how many burgers can she make with 4.75. I think the easiest way to do it is by turning the fractions into decimals, so 1/4 of a pound equals 0.25 pounds. Let´s see how to solve that.
[tex]QuantHamburgers=4.75pounds*\frac{1Hamburger}{0.25pounds} =19Hamburgers[/tex]
The same goes for the sliders, what we know is that we need half as much meat as used for a hamburger, therefore, the weight of a slider is 0.25/2=0.125 pounds, and we do just what we did with the hamburger.
[tex]QuantSlider=4.75pounds*\frac{1Slider}{0.125pounds} =38Sliders[/tex]
Or you could say that with the meat needed for 1 hamburger, you could make 2 silders, so the quantity of sliders that Anouk can make with enough meat to make 19 hamburgers is.
[tex]QuantSliders=19Hamburgers*\frac{2Sliders}{1Hamburger} =38Sliders[/tex]
Best of luck.
