Answer:

9/4 or 2 and 1/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 15 and 3/4 into an improper fraction

15*4+3 = 63

63/4

63/4 ÷ 7

9/4

Thus, each pack weighs 9/4 pounds

Answer:

2 1/4 pounds each

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 15 1/4 into a decimal (15.75) then divide by seven (15.75 ÷ 7 = 2.25)

and then convert 2.25 back into a fraction, 25 is 1/4 of 100 so the answer is 2 1/4
