Is it just me or is this the hardest word problem to solve?
Chad buys peanuts in 2-pound bags. He repackages them into bags that hold 5/6 pound of peanuts. How many 2-pound bags of peanuts should Chad buy so that he can fill the 5/6-pound bags without having any peanuts left over?
Just you.
2 = 2 * 5/6 + 1/3
So, a 2-lb bag makes 2 smaller bags with 1/3 lb left over
3 large bags will then make up 6 + 3/3 = 7 small bags
