Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The recipe for the meat loaf used by Jenny can serve a total of 8 people. Since there are 40 people in total to serve, the number of each ingredient needed is:

Number of each ingredient = total number of people / number of people served by one recipe

Number of each ingredient = 40 / 8 = 5

b) Since each recipe contains 1 1/2 lb (1.5 lbs) of ground beef, the total amount of ground beef needed to feed everyone is:

Total amount of ground beef = 1.5 lbs * 5 = 7.5 lbs

c) Since one serving would require 8 oz of milk. To serve everyone, the amount of milk needed is:

Amount of milk = 40 people * 8 oz = 320 oz

128 oz = 1 gallon

Amount of milk = 320 oz * 1 gallon / 128 oz = 2.5 gallon

A gardener has 8 pounds of fertilizer. He packs the fertilizer into 5/8 pound bags. What is the maximum number of 5/8 pound bags he can pack?

so first you multiply 8 pounds times 5 from 5/8 which is 40/8 pounds bags
now how many 8s can fit in 40 
40 divided by 8 =5 
so he can pack 5 maximum bags
