The pinata weighs 11/4 pounds without candy. He adds 8bags that weighs 3/8,3/8,1/2,1/2,1/2,3/4,3,11/4 how much will the pinata weigh when it is filled with the eight bags of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Weight of Pinata = 11/4 lb

Weight of candies = 3/8, 3/8, 1/2 , 1/2, 1/2, 3/4, 3, 11/4

Required

Weight of Pinata when filled with candies

To solve this question, we simply need to add all weights together

First, we need to add up the weight of the candies

Take LCM

Simplify:

Next; Add the weight of the candies to the weight of pinata

Take LCM

Simplify

Hence, the weight of the Pinata after it is filled with candies is 23/2 lb

step-by-step explanation:

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.
