Question

Thirteen candy bars weigh 26 ounces what is the weight of 35 candy bars

Answer 1

70 ounces

Explanation:

We can solve the weight of 35 candy bars by first finding the weight of one and multiplying by 35.

If 13 candy bars each weigh 26 ounces, one will weigh 2. We can write this out as shown:

13x = 26

x = 2

Now we simply multiply by 35 to get the total weight of 35 candy bars:

35x = 35(2) = 70
