Each package will contain \frac{1}{2} pounds of meat in a butcher store.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that total quantity of meat at butcher store = 5\frac{1}{2} pound

Number of package in which meat is equally divided = 11  

We need to determine meat in 1 package

As meat in 11 packages = 5\frac{1}{2} pound

Converting the mixed fraction we get,

5\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{11}{2}

=> Meat in 11 packages = \frac{11}{2} pounds

So meat in one package =\frac{11}{2} \div 11=\frac{1}{2}

Hence each package will contain \frac{1}{2} pounds

   x=3

2x-3y=3
(2*3)-3y=3
6-3=3y
