Question

Marni has 11 ounces of walnuts. She needs 6 ounces for one recipe and pound for another. There are 16 ounces in 1 pound.

Answer 1

11-6=5 ounces. She doesn’t have enough for both of the recipes. She will need 11 more ounces to be able to make the recipes. 5+11=16 and 16 ounces are in a pound.

Answer 2

Answer:

No, she doesn't have enough.

She needs 22 ounces in total, so needs 11 more ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Marni has 11 ounces of walnuts. She needs 6 ounces for one recipe and 16 ounces for another.

1 pound = 16 ounces, so convert any measurements using pounds to ounces.

2. Marni needs 6 + 16 ounces for both recipes. That's 22 ounces in total.

Add together the amount of walnuts needed for both recipes.

3. 6 + 16 > 11;

Marni does not have enough ounces of walnuts. She will need at least 22 ounces, which is 11 more than what she currently has.

Hope this helped!
