Answer: 20 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the weight of each flower arrangement (each one weighs 6 2/3 pounds) and the total number of flower arrangaments Isabelle ordered (3 flower arrangements).
To make the calculus easier, we can rewrite the mixed number 6 2/3 as a decimal number:
Divide the numerator 2 by the denominator 3 and add the result to the whole number 6:
If 1 arrangement weighs 6.666 pounds, the total weigth of 3 arrangements can be calculated by multiplying 6.666 pounds by 3:
Well first you have to divide 3 by 4, which is 0.75 or 3/4

Answer: 32 sandwiches
explanation: well, if one sandwich uses one eighth of a pound of cheese, that means that eight eighths of a pound (i.e one whole pound) would make eight sandwiches. Since we know that there are four pounds of cheese altogether, we can use this ratio (8 sandwiches per every 1 pound of cheese) to calculate that he made 32 sandwiches (8 times 4).
