Halloween question, perfect timing! Your answer would be 2 pounds per friend.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's how we get this:
First, multiply 3/4 by 6. You'll get 4.5. Let's use a decimal for this equation.
Now, you'll divide 9 by 4.5, to get 2. There's our answer. But we want to double-check and see if it's right.
We can do that by multiplying 4.5 by 2, or 2 by 4.5.
4.5 x 2 = 9
Therefore, your answer is 2 pounds per friend.
Hope I helped! ☺
