You are planning a summer cookout and decide to serve quarter-pound hamburgers. if you buy 5 and a 1/2 pounds of hamburger meat, how many burgers can you make? how would i solve this?

Well, namely, you've got 5 and 1/2 lbs of meat, and each burger will be 1/4 lb, so how many times 1/4 goes into 5 and 1/2?

let's first make the 5 and 1/2 mixed fraction to "improper" and divide them both.



don't forget the bbq sauce.

I'll do the first one for you. it isn't very hard at all.on number one, you have (50 × 3), which equals 150, and (3 × 3), which equals 9. after you establish that, you add 150 and 9 together. so, (150 + 9) equals 159.this means that 53 × 3 = 159.
