Sheila has 11 1 2 pounds of potato salad. She wants to divide the potato salad into containers, each of which holds 1 1 4 pounds. How many containers does she need?

9 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total pounds of potato salad = 11 1/2 pounds

If one container holds 1 1/4 pounds:

The number of container that 11 1/2 pounds can hold is expressed as:

Number of container = Total pounds/volume of one container

Number of container = 11 1/2 ÷ 1 1/4

Convert to improper fraction

Number of container = 23/2 ÷ 5/4

Number of container = 23/2 × 4/5

Number of container = 92/10

Number of container = 9.2

Therefore she will need 9 containers

step-by-step explanation

2r= 2300

r =1150

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3
