Answer 1

Answer:

6 packs of corn bits

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Peter was able to make 6 packets of corn bits.

Given,

The amount of corn bits bought by Peter = 3/4 kg

He packed this into 1/8 kg each.

To Find,

The number of packets he was able to make.

Solution,

Let us assume that the number of packets made by Peter was x.

Now, each packet contains 1/8 kg of corn bits and the total amount of corn bits bought was 3/4 kg.

So, according to the question

(3/4) = x*(1/8)

x = (3/4)/(1/8)

x = 3/4*8

x = 6

Hence, Peter was able to make 6 packets of corn bits containing 1/8 kg each.
