There are 6 muffins in a package. How many packages will be needed to feed 48 people if each person has 2 muffins?
I think it’s 2
I think it’s 2
(48*2)/6 = ____
To determine the number of packages needed to feed 48 people, we need to calculate the total number of muffins required and then divide it by the number of muffins in each package.
Since each person will be having 2 muffins, the total number of muffins required can be found by multiplying the number of people by the number of muffins per person:
48 people * 2 muffins/person = 96 muffins.
Now, we divide the total number of muffins by the number of muffins in each package to determine the number of packages needed:
96 muffins / 6 muffins/package = 16 packages.
Therefore, you would need 16 packages to feed 48 people if each person has 2 muffins.
