One whole jar= 3/3 or 1
Set up a ratio comparing the two sets of measurements.
2 2/4 ounces of peanuts is to 2/3 of a jar as x ounces of peanuts is to 3/3 of a jar.
x= ounces in 1 whole jar
2 2/4 / 2/3= x / 3/3
cross multiply
(2 2/4 * 3/3)= (2/3 * x)
convert to improper fractions
10/4 * 3/3= 2/3x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(10*3)/(4*3)= 2/3x
30/12= 2/3x
divide both sides by 2/3
30/12 ÷ 2/3= x
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 2/3
30/12 * 3/2= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(30*3)/(12*2)= x
90/24= x
simplify by 6
15/4 or 3 3/4 ounces= x
ANSWER: 3 3/4 ounces can make a full jar.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:

10 because 25 goes into 100 4 times 40 divided by 4=10
All you need to do is multiply the different types of each choice.
For salad, there are three different items. For entree, there are four different items. For side dish, there are three different items. for dessert, there are three different items.
Multiply the four numbers:
