Question

Jackson wants to divide 2/5 pound box of trail mix into smal bags. Each of the bags will hold 1/10 pound of trail mix. How many bags can he fill?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= # of bags he can fill

It is established that:

2/5 -> x # of 1/10 bags

So to find out:

$x=\frac{2}{5} /\frac{1}{10} \\\\x=\frac{2}{5} *\frac{10}{1} \\\\x=\frac{2*10}{5*1} \\\\x=\frac{20}{5} \\\\x=4$

Jackson can fill 4 bags of trail mix!

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: it should be four 4 because 2/5x2=4/10 which is 4 bags
