Answer: 6 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
We will divide the total amount [3/4 pounds] by the amount per bag [1/8 pound] to find how many bags he can make.
After writing the problem, we will use "Keep, change, flip" (Keep the first fraction, change to multiplication, flip the second fraction).
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}\ \text{pounds} \div \frac{1}{8} \ \text{pounds}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}\ \text{pounds} * \frac{8}{1} \ \text{pounds}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3*8\ \text{pounds}}{4*1\ \text{pounds}}\[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{24}{4}\[/tex]
6 bags
