The total weight of 6 pieces of butter and a bag of sugar is 3.8lb
If the weight of the bag of sugar is 1.4lb what is the weight of each piece of butter

Relax

Respuesta :

First, we subtract the weight of the bag of sugar from the total weight. This gives us: 2.4lb

Then, because we know there are 6 pieces of butter, we divide 2.4 by 6.

We end up with .4, which means each piece of butter weights .4lbs (or 2/5 of a pound).
