Answer:
9 hamburgers
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × 2 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 5 =[tex]2\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × 9 =2 [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] 2
,so 9 hamburgers can be made
We need to find the number of quarter pound hamburgers that can be made from given the amount of ground beef.
10 quarter pound hamburgers can be made.
The amount of ground beef available is [tex]2\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds.
One hamburger has a mass of [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] pound.
[tex]1\ \text{hamburger}=\dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{pound of beef}[/tex]
[tex]\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{pound of beef}=4\ \text{hamburgers}[/tex]
[tex]2\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{pound of beef}=(2+\dfrac{1}{2})\times4=10\ \text{hamburgers}[/tex]
So, a total of 10 quarter pound hamburgers can be made.
