Question

C. Betsy's dad bought a 5 lb. bag of grass seed. He needed 1 lb. 3 oz. for the front yard, 1 lb. 8 oz. for the side yard, and 2 Ib. 4 oz. for the back yard. Was the 5 lb. bag of seed enough for the three yards?

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add the different amounts needed together ( 1lb 3oz + 1lb 8oz + 2lb 4 oz ), you get 4lb 15oz. Since there are 16oz in a pound, you need less than 5 lb. Therefore, you need less than 5lb, the 5lb bag will be more than enough.
