Question

2 Ebony has a bag of grapes that weighs 8 ounces. Alex has 4 times as many bags of grapes, and each bag weighs 8 ounces. What is the weight of Alex's bags of grapes in all?

Answer 1

32 ounces

Explanation

Step 1

Let

weight of a bag=8 ounces

Ebony has 1 bag, then, Ebony has = 1* weight of a bag= 1*8 = 8 ounces

Ebony has 8 ounces

Alex has 4 times as many bags of grapes, it is

$\begin{gathered} \text{Alex bags=4}\cdot1\text{ bag} \\ \text{Alex bags= 4 bags} \\ \end{gathered}$

then,

Alex has 4 bags, Alexa has = 4* weight of a bag= 4*8=32 ounces

Alex's total = 32 ounces
