    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the number of ounce of almonds in each bag=a

    One bag of trail mix has 5 ounces of raisins and some almonds.

    In one bag, we have (5+a) ounces in total.

    Lon buys 3 bags of trail mix

    Therefore in three bags, 3 (5+a) ounces altogether.

    She 48 ounces of trail mix altogether.

    Therefore:

    3 (5+a) = 48

    15+3a=48

    3a=48-15

    3a=33

    a=11

    There are 11 ounces of almond in each bag of trail mix.
