Answer:

4[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] pounds of chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the 7 a fraction we put a one under it. Then we multiple the tops of the two fractions together and the bottom two numbers of the fraction together:

[tex]\frac{7}{1} X \frac{5}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{35}{8}[/tex]

Finally, we simplify the improper fraction into a mixed number:

4[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Answer:

chicken needed = 4 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

There will be 7 people at a party and each person will eat 5/8 of a pound of chicken.

To find chicken needed

one person needed = 5/8

total people = 7

Therefore total chicken needed = 7*5/8 = 35/8 = 4 3/8

therefore the correct answer is 4 3/6
