Question

1. Jarell is grocery shopping for his BBQ cookout this weekend. He is grilling 1/3 lb. burgers and expects about 20 people. How many whole lbs. of ground beef should be purchase?

Answer 1

The total number of whole burger that Jarell should purchase to feed 20 people is 7.0 lbs.

How to determine the number of ground beef?

Based on the information provided, we can deduce the following important parameters:

• Number of people = 20

• Fraction of burger per person = 1/3 lb.

Thus, the total number of whole burger that is required to feed 20 people is given by:

Total number = number of attendees × fraction per person

Total number = 20 × 1/3

Total number = 6.7 ≈ 7.0 lbs.
