Katie had 4 full cement blocks and one that was 4⁄6 the normal size. If each full block weighed 3 2⁄4 pounds, what is the weight of the blocks Katie has?

Please show how did you find your answer! Will put as brainliest and top answer!

The weight of the block that Katie has is 16 1/3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Katie has: 4 full cement blocks and 4/6 (or 2/3 ) of the normal size of a cement block

For one full block, it weighs 3 2/4 ( or 1/2) pounds, if you want to find the answer of the question, you need to multiply the weight with the cement blocks that Katie have.

First do the four full cement blocks:

4 * 3 2/4 = ?

4 * 14/4 = ?

Cancel the 4 that is being multiplied and the 4 that is being divided by 14.

= 14.

Now do the 4/6 (or 2/3) cement block:

2/3 * 3 2/4 = ?

2/3 * 14/4 = ?

Multiply the fractions together:

= 28/12

= 2 1/3

Finally, you add up the full blocks and the 2/3 cement block to get your

2 1/3 + 14 = 16 1/3

The weight of the block that Katie has is 16 1/3 pounds

{3 + i, 3 - i, 3, -1}
