Julian is packaging cold cuts. He prepares 9 bags that each contain 3 tenths of a pound of turkey. He calculates that the total
weight of the bags combined is 0.27 pounds. What error did Julian make? He placed the decimal point incorrectly after he multiplied.
He divided the weight of one bag by 9 instead of multiplying.
He multiplied the number of bags by 3 instead of 0.3.
He forgot to multiply and found the weight of one bag of turkey.
If you divide 9 by 25 it equals .36 if you divide 18 by 50 it equals .36 if you divide 36 by 100 it equals .36 and if you divide 9 by 25 it equals .36 therefor it’s all equivalent. 18 divided by 50 is also .36
