On a field trip, students ate 3/10 of a box of oranges. altogether they ate 6 pounds of oranges. how many pounds of oranges were in a full box? why each tenth of the model is 2 pounds?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of pounds of oranges in the full box.

On a field trip, students ate 3/10 of a box of oranges. This means that the students ate 3/10 × x = 3x/10 pounds of oranges.

Altogether they ate 6 pounds of oranges. This means that

3x/10 = 6

3x = 6×10

3x = 60

x = 60/3 = 20

The full box contained 20 pounds of oranges

Each tenth of the model is 2 pounds because a tenth of 20 pounds is 20/10 = 2 pounds
