Answer: 6.721 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We multiply by the conversion of liter to find what 1 liter
= 2.20 pounds
You have said 23 pounds so we could also divide 23/2.20 = 10.45 liters
This would make the recipe smaller as she used 10.45 liters.
We find 1 liter by finding 10% = 1.045 and then can see 1 liter + 0.045 is the divider and shows 4.5% more.
before multiplying it x 4 we can subtract 0.045 from 4 = 3.055 and then multiply back to 4 liter = 1 x 3.055 = 3.055 liters = and not 12.21 liters and not 3.55 liters.
We can convert 3.055 back to pounds and shows
conversion of 1 liter = 2.20 3.055 x 2.20 = 6.721 pounds which is also around 3kg
Answer:
3 lb of turkey
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you have not answered my question above, I will assume the problem reads like this:
"Margot used 1/2 pounds of turkey to make 2 /3 liters of turkey chili. If Margot's recipe is for 1 liter of turkey chili, how many pounds of turkey will she need to make 4 times the recipe? "
The recipe calls for 1/2 lb turkey to make 2/3 liter chili.
We have a rate of 1/2 lb turkey for 2/3 liter chili.
We first find the unit rate of turkey to chili.
(1/2 lb)/(2/3 liter) = (1/2 lb) * (3/(2 liter)) = 3/4 lb/liter
The unit rate is 3/4 lb of turkey per 1 liter of chili.
Her recipe makes 1 liter. She wants to make 4 times that amount. She needs to use 4 times the amount of turkey given in the unit rate.
4 * 3/4 lb = 3 lb
Answer: 3 lb of turkey
