Marianne buys 16 bags of potting soil that comes in 5/8-pound bags. How many pounds of potting soil does Marianne buy?


Sagot :

5/8*16=?
An easy way to do this is to this is just multiply by the numerator. So, 5*16=80. Now you can take that number and divide it by the denominator. 80/8=10.
Marianne bought 10 pounds of soil.
