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?
Accepted Solution
A:
2.29lbs + 1.79lbs = 4.08 lbs
4.08 (lbs) / 0.25 (weight of patties) = 16.32 patties
