Answer 1

Answer

given,

Chef has a = 238 pound salmon

slice of filet for one serving = 4 ounce

a) 1 pound = 16 ounce

  $1\ ounce = \dfrac{1}{16}\ pound$

 for one serving

    $4\ ounce = 4 \times \dfrac{1}{16}\ pounds$

 for each serving in pounds =    $\dfrac{1}{8}\ pound$

b) number of fillet that chef can create of 4 ounce

           $1\ serving = \dfrac{1}{8}\ pound$

       1 pound = 8 serving

       238 pound = 8 × 238

       238 pound = 1904 serving.
