Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

If she made 9 bags of 10 pounds each that would be 9(10)=90 pounds in total. So, there's 272-90=182 pounds remaining.

Those 182 pounds she wants to divide in groups of 5 pounds, that would be 182/5=36.4 bags. This means that she would have 36 bags of 5 pounds each.

Therefore, she would have 36 bags of 5 pounds each.
