Question

PLEASE ANSWER!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF YOU TELL ME THE CORRECT ANSWER AND HOW TO SHOW MY WORK FOR IT!! (MUST SHOW WORK TO GET BRAINLIEST)

Answer 1

Answer:

For the first question, the answer is 32 oz.

For the second question, the answer is 16 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, since there are 16 ounces in a pound, we can assume that since she has 3 pounds of fudge, she would have 48 ounces. She then eats one pound of fudge, which means we subtract 16 from 48 getting us to 32 ounces.

For the second question, it states that she gives one half of her fudge to her sister. 2 times 1/2 is 1, and since there are 16 ounces in a pound, she therefore gave 16 ounces of fudge to her sister.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. 32 ounces

2. 16 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

First, you have to subtract. The equation for the subtraction is 3-1 because the student took 1 pound of fudge away from the 3 pounds she already has. And 3-1 equals 2. Now, you have to convert 2 pounds to ounces. Lastly, multiply 2 by 16 as it says in the picture (it says 16 ounces equals 1 pound). The answer to this equation can be expressed as 32 or 32 ounces.

Question 2

First, you have to take information from the previous question which is that she has 2 pounds of fudge left. Then, she gives $\frac{1}{2}$ of the fudge to her sister, so you have to divide 2 by $\frac{1}{2}$ which is 1. Now, you have to express 1 as ounces as shown in the picture. You just have to multiply 1 by 16 which is 16. Therefore the answer can be expressed as 16 or 16 ounces.
