x-11x/12
As the banana peel weighs 1/12 of the total weight of a banana, so the weight of the peel 1/12 ounce and the weight of a peeled banana11/12 ounce
12/12 ounce= weight 11 ounces
Answer:
11 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Unpeeled = X
Peeled = (1 - 1/12)X = (11/12)X
X = (11/12)X + (11/12)
X - (11/12)X = 11/12
(1/12)X = 11/12
X = 11 ounces
