Question

Madison is in charge of buying the hamburger meat for her company’s annual picnic. She needs to buy enough meat to make 1,000 hamburgers. Each hamburger will weigh 0.25 pound. How many pounds of hamburger meat should Madison buy?

Answer 1

If Madison needs to make 1000 hamburgers, and they weigh 0.25lb each, then you need to multiply 0.25 by 1000, and this will determine how much Madison will need to buy.
0.25*1000= 250
Therefore, Madison will need to buy 250lb of meat
Hope this helps :)
