Answer 2

Answer:

d) $3\frac{3}{4}$ pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we know:

- Sarah has $11 \frac{1}{4}$ pounds of dog food

- Sarah is dividing this into 3 containers

1) Convert $11 \frac{1}{4}$ into an improper fraction

$11 \frac{1}{4}$

Multiply the whole number by the denominator

11 × 4 = 44

Add 44 to the numerator

44 + 1 = 45

$\frac{45}{4}$

2) Divide $\frac{45}{4}$ by 3

$\frac{45}{4} / 3$

Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying its reciprocal

$= \frac{45}{4} *\frac{1}{3}$

Multiply the numerators and the denominators

$45*1 = 45\\4*3 = 12$

$= \frac{45}{12}$

3) Convert $\frac{45}{12}$ into a mixed number fraction

$\frac{45}{12}$ ⇒ $3\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, there will be $3\frac{3}{4}$ pounds of food in each container.

I hope this helps!
