Answer:
Heya....Here is your answer --
Number of pies = 9
Weight of 9 pies = 20 1/4 = 81/4 pounds
Weight of 1 pie = Weight of 9 pie/number of pies
= 81/4/9
= 81/4 × 1/9 (Reciprocal)
= 9/4 pounds
= 2 1/4 pounds
CHECKING
2 1/4 ×9
= 9/4 ×9
= 81/4
= 20 1/4
CHECKED
CORRECT
So, the weight of 1 pie will be 2 1/4 pounds.
