Question

Juliette is making fruit salad. She purchased 9 2/3 ounces each of 6 differnt fruits. How many ounces of fruit did she purchase?

Answer 1

Answer:

58 bounces of fruits did Juliette purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 4 feet per second or 6 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

As per the given statement: Juliette is making fruit salad. She purchased  $9\frac{2}{3}$ounces each of 6 different fruits.

Unit rate per fruits = $9\frac{2}{3}=\frac{29}{3}$ ounces.

Number of fruits = 6

Then;

$\text{Total number of ounces of fruit} = \text{Unit rate per fruits} \times \text{Number of fruits}$

Substitute the given values we get;

$\text{Total number of ounces of fruit} =\frac{29}{3} \times 6 = 29 \times 2 = 58$

Therefore, 58 ounces of fruits did she purchased
