Ken is making trail mix for his next hiking club meeting. He mixes 2 pounds of peanuts, 2
pounds of raisins, and 1 pound of chocolate chips. His little sister begs him for a snack, so he
gives her 5 ounces of the trail mix. Then, he portions out the rest for his meeting. If Ken
splits the remaining trail mix evenly among 25 snack bags, how many ounces of trail mix will
each bag have?

Answer:

3 ounces of trail mix per bag

Step-by-step explanation:

1 pound = 16 ounces

  2 pounds of peanuts

  2 pounds of raisins

+  1 pound of chocolate chips

= 5 pounds of trail mix

[tex]5(16) = 80[/tex]

5 pounds = 80 ounces of trail mix

80 - 5 (for Ken's sister) = 75 ounces

75 ÷ 25 = 3 ounces

Hope this helps~!
