Question

Daniela buys 6 lb of sausages. Only 5/8 of the sausages are used. How many pounds of sausages were used?

Answer 1

Answer:

15/4 or 3.75 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, for this, we need to find what 5/8 of 6 is, which can be done by simply multiplying 6 by 5/8.

6 * 5/8 = 30/8

Now, let's simplify 30/8. Both numbers are divisible by two, so we can reduce it to 15/4, or 3.75 pounds.
