Answer:
\(\text{2 bags are filled if Claire puts }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
\(\text{Given that Claire made }\frac{1}{2}\text{ pound of trail mix. If she puts } \frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag, }\)
we have to find the number of bags.
\(\text{Capacity of }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix in 1 bag}\)
\(\text{Capacity of }1\text{ pound of trail mix in }\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}=4 bags}\)
\(\text{Capacity of }\frac{1}{2}\text{ pound of trail mix in }4\times \frac{1}{2}=2 bags\)
\(\text{Hence, 2 bags are filled if Claire puts }\frac{1}{4}\text{ pound of trail mix into each bag}\)
