Respuesta :

The oranges in 2,080 ounces were repackaged into 10-pound bags for resale

First, ounces are to be converted into pounds

Since

16 ounces = 1 pound

Then

2080 ounces = x pound

This implies

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{2080}{16} \\ x=130 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence,

2080 ounces = 130 pound

Since the oranges were repackaged into 10-pound bags

Then

The number of bags will be

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Number of bags }=\frac{130}{10} \\ \text{Number of bags }=13 \end{gathered}[/tex]
