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

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hamburger meat = 1.76 lb

                                     +2.29 lb

                                       4.05 lb

Number of burgers = Weight of hamburger meat ÷ Weight of one burger

= 4.05 ÷ 0.25

No. = 0.25)4.05

To divide decimal numbers:

1. Move the decimal point of the divisor to the right to make it a whole number and move the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places.

25.)405.

2. Divide as usual, putting the decimal point directly above the decimal point in the dividend.

        16.2

25.)405.0

     20  

      155

      150  

          50

          50

            0

Sonia can make 16 hamburgers with 0.2 burger left over  

Check:

0.25 × 16.2 = 4.05

          4.05 = 4.05

OK.
