Mr. Marcos bought chicken and beef from the butcher and fish from the fish market for a barbecue. Thee ratio of the weight of chicken to the weight of the beef to the weight of the fish he bought was 3 : 1 : 5. He bought 10 pounds of fish. What was the total weight of meat he bought from the butcher?

8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Total ratio = 3 + 1 + 5 = 9

x = total pounds of chicken, beef and fish bought

equation for pounds of fish bought = 5/9 × x = 10

divide both sides by 9/5

x = 18

pounds of chicken bought = 3/9 x 18 = 6 pounds

pounds of beef bought = 1/9 x 18 = 2 pounds

total weight of meat bought = 6 + 2 = 8 pounds
