Charity is packing a 2-pounds container of trail mix into bags for a camping trip. Each bag holds 1/8 pound trail mix. If Charity uses all 2 pounds of trail mix, how many 1/8 pound bags would she have ?

She would have 16 bags of trail mix.

Step-by-step explanation: Since one bag of trail mix contains 1/8 of a pound. You need to add how much it will take to make 2 pounds. So you keep adding 1/8 but the denominator stays the same each time you add. So it will look like this: 1/8 + 1/8 = 2/8 and you keep repeating it until you get 8/8 which equals 1 pound. Then you add 1/8 until you get 8/8 again. So 8 + 8 = 16.

5/12, or 5: 12

step-by-step explanation:

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
