Question

lin is a camp counselor. She is making small bags of trail Mix for camps to take on hike. She has 2 pound of raisins and is putting 1/8 pounding each bag. How many bags can she fill before she run out of raisins?

Answer 1

2÷1/8
2/1÷1/8 is the same as 2/1×8/1. So 2 times 8 equals 16. 16 is the final answer. Whenever you have a problem like this, always multiply the first number and the second number's reciprocal. It is easier and way faster than converting them to decimals and dividing it.

Answer 2

sixteen bags is right
