The deli gets 1212 -pound blocks of cheese. They slice the cheese into \frac{1}{4} 4 1 ​ - pound and \frac{1}{2} 2 1 ​ - pound packages to sell to customers. How many \frac{1}{2} 2 1 ​ - pound packages of cheese can the deli make with 1212 pounds of cheese?

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question given :

Total pounds of cheese = 12

These cheese are sliced into 1/4 pounds and 1/2 pounds packages.

What the question requests is the number of 1/2 pounds fraction we can get from the total 12 pounds of cheese.

This means we aren't cutting out 1/4 pounds fraction from this package as the question didn't specify.

Hence, the number of 1/2 pounds fraction obtainable from 12 pounds of cheese I s:

We divide the 12 pounds cheese by 1/2

This gives :

12 ÷ 1/2 ; 12 / 1/2

÷ change to multiplication ond the reciprocal of the denominator is used

12 * 2 /1 = 24 /1

We Obtain 24 1/2-pound cheese

i think its 20 because u should do 10 times every number in the shape
