An improper fraction is a fraction in which the numerator (top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator.
Given:
Package of cornbreads = 4
each pack weighs = x
weight of biscuit mix = x+1
total weight = 31 pounds
Solution:
The total weight = weight of all cornbread pacakges+ package of biscuit mix
=> 4x+(x+1) = 31
=> 5x+1 = 31
=> x = [tex]\frac{31-1}{5}[/tex]
=> x = [tex]\frac{30}{5}[/tex]
=> x = 6
So, the weight of cornbread package = 6 pound
The improper weight of the total weight of all packages including biscuit mix -
