To find out how many servings are in the box, we need to divide the total weight of the box by the weight of each serving.
Total weight of the box = 4/5 of a pound
Weight of each serving = 1/15 of a pound
Number of servings = (Total weight of the box) ÷ (Weight of each serving)
= (4/5) ÷ (1/15)
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Number of servings = (4/5) * (15/1)
= (4*15) / (5*1)
= 60 / 5
= 12
There are 12 servings in a box of Sour Patch Kids.
To find the number of servings in the box of Sour Patch Kids, we need to divide the weight of the box by the weight of each serving.
Weight of the box: 4/5 pound
Weight of each serving: 1/15 pound
To divide these fractions, we can multiply the first fraction (4/5) by the reciprocal of the second fraction (15/1).
(4/5) * (15/1) = (4 * 15) / (5 * 1) = 60/5 = 12
Therefore, the box of Sour Patch Kids contains 12 servings.
