Answer:

  28 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of $3.75 cheese needed for the mix. Then the total cost of the mix is ...

  3.75x +4.55(45 -x) = 4.05(45)

  -0.80x = 45(4.05 -4.55) = -0.50(45) . . . . . simplify, subtract 4.55(45)

  x = (5/8)(45) = 28.125 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by -0.80

To the nearest pound, 28 pounds of $3.75 cheese would be needed in the mix.

IgorLugansk [536]

Explanation:

When you perform long division of 50 by 7, you find that the quotient is 7 and the remainder is 1. The remainder expressed over the original divisor is the fraction. (In some cases, that fraction may need to be reduced.)

That is ...

\dfrac{50}{7}=\dfrac{49+1}{7}=\dfrac{7\cdot 7+1}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{7\cdot 7}{7}+\dfrac{1}{7}=7+\dfrac{1}{7}=7\frac{1}{7}
