3. Three Bean Salad Puzzle #2

Answer 1

Answer: 1 lima bean, 2 red beans, 3 black-eyed peas

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/6 of the beans are lima beans, then there are 6 * 1/6 lima beans in the salad. 6 * 1/6 = 6/6 = 1.

If 1/3 of the beans are red beans, then there are 6 * 1/3 red beans in the salad. 6 * 1/3 = 6/3 = 2.

If 1/2 of the beans are black-eyed peas, then there are 6 * 1/2 black-eyed peas in the salad. 6 * 1/2 = 6/2 = 3.

Answer:

Lima Beans: 6 x $\frac{1}{6}$ = 1

Red Beans: $\frac{1}{3}$ x 6 = 2

Black Eyed-Peas: $\frac{1}{2}$ x 6 = 3
