Answer 1

Answer:

10 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of servings to be prepared = 32

Weight of each pound = 3 oz

Yield factor per can = 0.8

Now,

Total weight of the cans = 32 × 3 = 96 oz

Actual weight required with yield factor 0.8 = $\frac{96\ oz}{0.8}$ =  120 oz

Therefore,

The number of 12 oz cans required = $\frac{120}{12}$  = 10 cans
