Ryan has nine 14 ounce bags of popcorn to repackage and sell at the school fair. A small bag holds 3 ounces. How many small bags can he make?
Answer: 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Number of 14 ounces bags of popcorn = 9
Then , the total weight of popcorn in 9 bags =\(14\times9=144\text{ ounces}\)
If a small bag holds 3 ounces.
Then , the number of small bags he can make :-
\(\dfrac{144}{3}=48\)
Therefore , the number of small bags he can make = 48
