15/4 multiply by 6/1
multiply 6 times 15
and 1 times 4
Divide 90 by 4 to get your answer.
To find out how much applesauce is in a 6-pack, we need to multiply the amount of applesauce in one container by the number of containers in the 6-pack.
Given that one container of applesauce contains 3 3/4 ounces, we can convert it to a mixed number: 3 3/4 = 15/4.
Now, let's multiply the amount of applesauce in one container by the number of containers in the 6-pack:
(15/4) ounces/container × 6 containers = (15/4) × 6 ounces.
To multiply fractions, you need to multiply the numerators (the numbers on the top) and the denominators (the numbers on the bottom). Therefore:
(15/4) × 6 ounces = (15 × 6) / (4 × 1) ounces = 90/4 ounces.
Simplifying the fraction 90/4 gives us: 90 ÷ 4 = 22 2/4 = 22 1/2.
Therefore, there are 22 1/2 ounces of applesauce in a 6-pack of applesauce.
