The rice will cost $17.6 for serving 40 people
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
We need to determine the cost of serving 40 people with rice
Arborio rice is purchased in 2-pound boxes for $1.99
The price of 1 pound box will be 
1 Pound (lb) is equal to 16 ounces (oz)
Therefore, the price of 16 ounces is $0.995
A cup of raw Arborio rice weighs 7 ounces and it serve 1 people

Therefore rice will cost $17.6 for serving 40 people
Answer: 17/50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, to add fractions, we must find a common denominator, in this case, 100.
Then, we must make the fractions being added all have the common denominator.
So, we must multiply 3/10 * 10/10, which equals 30/100
30/100 + 4/100
Then, just add across the numerator to get 34/100, which can be simplified to 17/50
Simplify both to 1/2 because both numerators are half of their denominators. Then multiply straight across to 1/4.
