A large freezer can hold 46 cartons of ice cream. Filled with ice cream, the freezer weighs 138 pounds. If u pulled out 3 ice cream cartons, how much weight are you carrying?
You are taking out 9 pounds and there is 129 pounds left in the freezer. You do this by first finding the unit rate. You do that by doing 138÷46 to find out how much each ice cream carton weighs.
