Sonia has two packages of hamburger meat. the first package weighs 1.76 pounds and the second package weighs 2.29 pounds. she mixes the two packages together and forms hamburgers that weigh 0.25 pound each. what is the greatest number of 0.25-pound hamburgers sonia can make using the hamburger meat she has?

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The total mass of meat is the sum of the meat from both packages.

1.76 lb + 2.29 lb = 4.05 lb

If we divide the total amount of meat by the amount of meat per hamburger, we will find the number of hamburgers.

4.05 lb / (0.25 lb/ hamburger) = 16 hamburger

Sonia can prepare 16 hamburgers.
