A chocolate maker melts three blocks of chocolate weighing 5.4 ounces, 6.1 ounces, and 5.7 ounces. If each truffle takes 0.4 ounces of chocolate, how many truffles can he make? (1 point) Responses 41 41 42 42 43 43 44 44
To find out how many truffles can be made, you need to divide the total weight of the chocolate by the weight of each truffle.
The total weight of the chocolate is 5.4 + 6.1 + 5.7 = 17.2 ounces.
Dividing the total weight by the weight of each truffle, we get 17.2 / 0.4 = 43 truffles.
Therefore, the answer is 43.
