Achef cooked 7 kg of mashed potatoes for dinner party. if the guest only ate 3/4 of the amount he cooked, how much did they eat?

Hey there!

To find how much the guests ate, you must set up this expression:
3/4*7

Now, simplify the expression to get 21/4.

Finally, convert it to a mixed fraction to get 5 1/4.

Therefore, the guests ate 5 1/4 kg of the mashed potatoes.

Hope this helps! :)

If there are four friends then each would get, 1.25 or 1 1/4. so this is how i solved 5 ÷ 4 = 1.25 . hope this ; )
