the large bag is 5/6 lb, the smaller bags will be 1/3 lb, so it should be 5/6 ÷ 1/3

Answer:
1245
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the number 3 to each of the numbers in the second set of parentheses. Be careful to remember to add zeros to the number depending on which place holder the number is in.
Demonstration:
3 × 400
3 x 10
3 x 5
After solving each equation, add the total
1200 + 30 + 15 = 1245

Answer:
1st number: 20
2nd number: 25
3rd number: 75
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y + z = 120
x = y - 5
z = 3y
plug that in!
(y-5) + y + (3y) = 120
remove the parenthesis (I used them to show you what I was replacing), and add like terms.
5y - 5 = 120
move -5 to the other side
5y = 120 + 5
5y = 125
divide both sides by 5
y = 25
now that you have one number, use the equations from before to solve for the rest!
x = (25) - 5
z = 3(25)
_____________________________________________________
x = 20
y = 25
z = 75
