If 9 is 1/3 of the problem, then 9 x 3
= 27 would be the answer
Answer:
Answer is :- Each pork chop weight is 4.8 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A 3 pound pork can be cut into 10 pork chops of equal weight.
Weight of one pork chop = 3/10 pounds
or Weight of one pork chop = 0.3 pound
We can convert 0.3 pounds into ounces
Since 1 pound = 16 ounces
Then, 0.3 pound = 16 * 0.3 ounces
or 0.3 pound = 4.8 ounces
Hence each pork chop weight is 4.8 ounces.
First find out how much he makes in 8 hours (9x8=72). Then subtract 72 from 155 (155-72=83). Then divide 83 by 6 (83/6=13.8333). Since 83 is not evenly divisible by 6, and since he can't deliver .8333 of a delivery, we would round up, giving us 14). Ben would need to make 14 deliveries in 8 hours to make more than $155 :) Hope this helps you :)
