Have you ever wondered how much food is used to produce

your canned favorites in the supermarket? When food is

cooked, it loses weight because water is removed. During

processing, 500 pounds of a certain food loses 90 pounds of

water. How many cans of prepared food are produced if each

can holds 1 pound of food?

    Step-by-step explanation:

    nine 5 pound bags

    distributed into 10-ounce bags

    1 pound = 16 ounces

    9 x 5 pounds = 45 pounds

    45 pounds * 16 ounces/lbs = 45 * 16 oz = 720 ounces

    720 ounces / 10 ounce bags = 720/10 = 72 bags.
