A man is on a diet and goes into a shop to buy some turkey slices. He is given 3 slices which together weigh 1/3 of a pound, but , his diet says that he is only allowed to eat 1/4 of a pound. How many of the 3 slices he bought can he eat while staying true to his diet?
1 answer:
Well, if you multiply 16 oz (1 lbs) by (1/3). You get 5.28 oz for 3 slices. If you divide 5.28 by 3, you get 1.76 oz per slices. This means that he can eat 2 full slices of turkey and half a slice in order to eat less than (1/4) of a pound. So the answer would be 2-2.5 slices.
