Michelle bought 76 pounds of cocoa powder for her bakery. Every day she used the same amount of cocoa powder to make bakery items. After 10 days, Michelle was left with 20.2 pounds of cocoa powder. On average, how many pounds of cocoa powder did Michelle use each day? 5.58 pounds 7.45 pounds 9.62 pounds 12.6 pounds

Respuesta :

76 - 20.2 = 55.8 so we know 55.8 pounds were used over those 10 days
Do 55.8 divided by 10 to get the amount used each day
10x = 55.8
x = 5.58
So your answer is 5.58 pounds
