The largest taco contained approximately 1 kg of onion for every 6.8 kg grilled steak. The total weight of these two ingredients was 617.6 kg. How many kilograms of each ingredient were used?

Onion = 79.17 kg

Grilled steak = 538.356 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:

1 k + 6.8 k = 617.6  

Where “k” is a constant value, a multiplier.

Solving for k:

7.8 k = 617.6

k = 617.6 /7.8  

k= 79.17

So:

Amount of onion used:

1 (79.17) = 79.17 kg

Amount of grilled steak used:

6.8 (79.17) = 538.356 kg
