a ketchup packet contains 3/16 ounces of ketchup. how many packets can be made using 24 ounces of ketchup?
if anyone knows all of the answers that are right plz give them to me, i am desperate.
24/(3/16) = 24 * (16/3) = 384/3 packets
wait wait, i may or may not get this wrong! since the guy above said to divide...
3/16 divided by 24/1= 3/16 x 1/24= 3/384
384 divided into 3 would equal 128
tadaah~!
To find out how many packets can be made using 24 ounces of ketchup, we need to divide the total amount of ketchup by the amount of ketchup in each packet.
The amount of ketchup in one packet is 3/16 ounces.
So, to find the number of packets, we can divide 24 ounces by 3/16 ounces:
(24 ounces) ÷ (3/16 ounces)
To divide fractions, we can multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction in the denominator:
(24 ounces) × (16/3 ounces)
Now, we can simplify:
(24 × 16) / 3 = 384 / 3 = 128 packets
Therefore, using 24 ounces of ketchup, you can make 128 packets.
I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
Nobody is going to just "give you the answers", that is not how this website works
For this one, you would simply have to divide 24 by (3/16)
