Answer:

1/2 pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversions: 48 oz = 3 lb

The ratio in the new pot is 3*2 tbs : 3 pounds , or just 6:3, which simplifies to 2:1. This means for every two tbs of powder, 1 lb of beef is used. This means that for every one tbs, 1/2 lb of beef is used.

Answer:

0.5 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will convert 48 ounces to pounds.  There are 16 ounces in a pound; this gives us

48/16 = 3 lb.

In the first pot he uses 2 tablespoons of chili powder.  In the second pot, he uses 3 times as much; this is 2(3) = 6.

This makes the pounds of beef per tablespoon of chili powder

3/6 = 0.5.
