Question

Franklin loves to cook with fresh herbs. So, he decides to plant 8 different herbs and keep the small pots on his kitchen windowsill. He starts with a 4-pound bag of soil and puts the same amount of soil in each pot. If he uses all of the soil, how many ounces does he add to each pot?

Answer 1

Answer:

8 ounces for each pot

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know there are 16 oz in a pound. Since there are 4 pounds, we multiply 4 by 16 to get 64, which is the amount of oz of dirt Franklin will plant. We then divide 64 by 8, to find out the amount of oz per pot.

Hope this helps!
