Ответ:
First we define the variables:
x: number of pounds in the bag
y: number of pounds of oats
The equation to find the number of pounds of oats in the bag is:
y = (20/100) x
Simplifying:
y = (1/5) x
(1/5): Represents that 20% of the weight of the bag is oatmeal.
y = (1/5) x
PART B
Using the equation of part A, we have:
y = (1/5) (2)
y = 0.4 lb
0.4 lb corresponds to the oat weight of the 2 lb that the bag weighs
