Answer:
- 3 packages of American (7/8 lb)
- 2 packages of cheddar (1/2 lb)
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of cheese Mrs Mack needs is an odd number of eighths of a pound. So, she must buy an odd number of the 7/8 pound packages.
If she were to buy any 1/5 pound packages, she would have to buy a multiple of 5 of them so as to have an integral number of eighths. The only suitable multiple is 0.
If Mrs Mack buys 1 of the 7/8 pound packages, she cannot make up the difference with half-pound packages. She must buy 3 of the 7/8 pound packages, for a total of 2 5/8 pounds of American cheese. The remaining pound can be bought as 2 of the 1/2 pound packages.
To buy 3 5/8 pounds, Mrs Mack must purchase ...
3 packages of American cheese (7/8 lb each)
2 packages of Cheddar cheese (1/2 lb each)
