Acatering company currently has 34 1/4 pounds of dry pasta in stock. they plan to use 15 1/2 pounds for an upcoming wedding and then divide the remaining pasta into 5 equal-sized portions for smaller events. how many pounds of dry pasta will be in each of these portions?

They start with 34.25

They plan to use 15.5

They want to use the remaining for 5 portions

First let's see how much we have left after we use the 15.5 pounds

34.25 - 15.5 = 18.75 pounds

So, we have 18.75 pounds remaining. We want to divide this into 5 portions

18.75 / 5 = 3.75

So, you will have 3.75 pounds in each portion.
