Homework Help: 7th Grade Math

Posted by Missy on Sunday, September 28, 2008 at 5:36pm.

Sally wants to buy some chips for her party. The bags of chips at Kroger are sold in 10.5 cup bags. Sally thinks that each guest will eat about 3/4 cup of chips. If she bought two bags of chips how many guests can she feed?

I got an answer of two guest, but I think that is wrong. So, I really don't know.

3/4 cup = 0.75 cups

Divide the decimals.

Let's change 3/4 cup to a decimal, 0.75. Multiply 10.5 * 2.

Divide: 21 / 0.75 = ?

What do you get?
