Let's assign a variable x to the number of multiples for each pound of dry mix and water. With that being the said, the question for finding the total pounds would be:
Total pounds = x*Pounds of dry mix + x*Pounds of water
Total pounds = 60x + 8x = 68x = 14 + 1/6 = 85/6
x = 85/6 / 68
x = 5/24
Thus, the pounds of dry mix is 60*5/24 = 25/2 lbs, while the pounds of water is 8*5/24 = 5/3 pounds.
Answer: 14
= 16 x (7/8)
= 8 goes into 16 2 times
= 2 x 7
= 14
All you have to do is take the size for every cereal, divide it with its price and you should get your answer as cents. then compare them all and see which one has the lowest price.
* don't forgot to put place holders and add a decimal.
Make the two 2/1 and make the 1/3 a 3/1. Your equation should be 2/1 x 3/1, then you must simplify your answer.
