Eva, Josh, and David gather and shell pecans for their mother. Eva gathers 2 1/2 pounds of pecans, Josh collects 3.25 pounds, and David harvests 4 3/8 pounds. If they place all the pecans in one basket and each shells the same amount of pecans, how many pounds would each person shell? Group of answer choices

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.375 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pounds of pecans =

2 1/2 pounds of pecans + 4 3/8 pounds + 3.25 pounds

= (6.875 + 3.25) pounds

= 10.125 pounds.

The total number of person = 3 person.

Therefore, the number of pounds each person would shell =

10.125 pounds/3

= 3.375 pounds
