there are 7 people in his family if each burger weighs 3/4 of a pound how much ground beef should john buy

1 answer:

7 0

If the ground beef is in pounds, it would be 5.25 lbs of ground beef.

We would get this answer by converting 3/4 into a decimal, .75. Then we multiply .75 by 7 (the number of people).

((This is if the amount of ground beef is in pounds, I'm not sure what it would be if it wasn't))

1. The combined volume of all the tanks at the aquarium is written in Scientific notation. Keeping this on mind, you can write it as following:

$(1.25)(10^{6})=1,250,000gallons$

2. Now, you must sum the combined volume of all the tanks and the volume of the new tank to calculate the total volume of all of them: $Vt=1,250,000gallons+250,000gallons\\Vt= 1,500,000gallons$
