Answer: [tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
2[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] barrels of almonds to make 3 batches of granola bar.
We need to turn fraction 2[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] into a mixed number
2[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{21}{10}[/tex]
Now we set up an equation.
[tex]\frac{\frac{21}{10} }{3} =\frac{x}{1}[/tex]
Solve for x by cross multiplying and dividing.
[tex]\frac{21}{10}[/tex] ÷ 3 (KCF)
[tex]\frac{21}{10}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{21}{30}[/tex]
Now we simplify the fraction.
[tex]\frac{21}{30}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex] barrels of almonds were used in each batch.
