Affect or use is 1/8 of a barrel of raisins in each batch of granola bars yesterday the factory use 1/2 of a barrel of raisins how many batches of granola bars did the factory made yesterday?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Factory made 4 batches of granola bars yesterday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1 batch of granola bar is made of 1/8 barrel of raisins.

1/8 barrels can be rewritten as 0.125 barrels.

Hence we can say 1 batch of granola bar is made of 0.125 barrels.

Also Given:

Yesterday Factory used 1/2 barrel of raisins.

1/2 barrels can be rewritten as 0.5 barrels.

Hence we need to find how much batches of granola bars were made using 0.5 barrels of raisins.

Now,

For 0.125 barrels raisins = 1 batch of granola bar

for 0.5 barrels of raisins = Batches of granola bar for 0.5 barrels of raisins

By Using Unitary method we get;

Batches of granola bar for 0.5 barrels of raisins = [tex]\frac{1\times 0.5}{0.125}=4[/tex]

Hence Factory made 4 batches of granola bars yesterday.
