Jason eats 10 ounces of candy in 5 days. How many pounds does he eat per day? How long will it take Jason to eat 1 pound of candy?

To find out how many pounds of candy Jason eats per day, divide the total amount of candy he eats (10 ounces) by the number of days (5 days):

10 ounces / 5 days = 2 ounces per day

To convert ounces to pounds, divide the number of ounces by 16 (since 1 pound equals 16 ounces):

2 ounces / 16 = 0.125 pounds per day

So, Jason eats approximately 0.125 pounds of candy per day.

To determine how long it will take Jason to eat 1 pound of candy, divide 1 pound by the amount he eats per day:

1 pound / 0.125 pounds per day = 8 days

Thus, it will take Jason approximately 8 days to eat 1 pound of candy.

To find out how many pounds of candy Jason eats per day, we divide the total number of ounces he eats in 5 days (10 ounces) by the number of days:

[ \text{Pounds per day} = \frac{10 \text{ ounces}}{5 \text{ days}} ]

To find out how long it will take Jason to eat 1 pound of candy, we divide the total number of ounces in 1 pound (16 ounces) by the amount he eats per day:

[ \text{Days to eat 1 pound} = \frac{16 \text{ ounces}}{\text{Pounds per day}} ]
