Answer:
You will need to buy 5 1.50lb bags of sugar to make your recipe.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved by consecutive rules of three.
A large recipe calls for 3.18kg of sugar. Your bags of sugar are measured in pounds (lb). Remembering that 1kg=2.20462lb
How many lbs of sugar you will need to buy?
1 kg - 2.20462lb
3.18 kg - x lb


How many 1.50lb bags of sugar will you need to buy to make your recipe?
1 bag - 1.50 lb
x bags - 7 lb



You will need to buy 5 1.50lb bags of sugar to make your recipe.
