Answer:

A reality check quickly reveals that even if "eats" were spelled properly, the statement would still be nonsense.

Step-by-step explanation:

(40,000 pounds / 80 years) = (4,000 pounds / 8 years) = 500 pounds per year

500 pounds of bread per year = an average of a little more than 1-1/3 pound of bread per day, every day of a person's life.  My reality meter says that this is a bit much, especially in the USA.

How do you get the answer for 7 5/6 + 2 3/6
Blizzard [7]
First you would add 5/6 and 3/6 which would be 8/6. Next you would convert the improper fraction (8/6) into a mixed number which would be 1 2/6. Now just add 7 and 2 which is 9. Finally you would add the whole number and the mixed number. So your answer is 10 2/6 unless the instructions say to simplify then your answer would be 10 1/3.
