I assume you mean 5/8 of a pound not 58 pounds. In that case convert your total number of pounds into eights to make it easier to calculate. 5 pounds is equal to 40/8 pounds of cheese. Now divide this by 5/8. That equals 8. SO you can make 8 batches.
Consider such events:
A - slip with number 3 is chosen;
B - the sum of numbers is 4.
You have to count 
Use formula for conditional probability:
1. The event 
consists in selecting two slips, first is 3 and second should be 1, because the sum is 4. The number of favorable outcomes is exactly 1 and the number of all possible outcomes is 5·4=20 (you have 5 ways to select 1st slip and 4 ways to select 2nd slip). Then the probability of event is
2. The event 
consists in selecting two slips with the sum 4. The number of favorable outcomes is exactly 2 (1st slip 3 and 2nd slip 1 or 1st slip 1 and 2nd slip 3) and the number of all possible outcomes is 5·4=20 (you have 5 ways to select 1st slip and 4 ways to select 2nd slip). Then the probability of event is
3. Then
Answer: 
Once you complete the square, the simplified version of this equation is
(2x - 1)^2= 0
If you want to solve for x, subtract 1 and divide by 2.
x = 0.5
