Answer:
1. 11
2.1/24
3.28.8
Step-by-step explanation:
A cook has 2 3/4 pounds of ground beef
1 burger = 1/4 pounds, so the number of burgers that can be made:
= 4over11 divide 4over1
4over11 x 4over1 (arrowturn it upside down)
= 44 divide 4
=11
2. 1over6 x 1over4 (multiply numerator to numerator and denominator to denamenator)
=1/24
3. 24 divide 5over6
144over6 x 5over6
864 divide 30
=28.8
