there are 500 pounds of almonds to package If each package contains two-fifths pounds of almonds how many packages are needed

2

Step-by-step explanation:

# means number

/ = divided

formula = total # of almonds/# of almonds in each bag

formula in use = 500/250

500/250 = 2; 2 packages are needed

i got 142 as my answer

step-by-step explanation:

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
