To know the total amount of ham we have to serve, we need to subtract

So, there is 541/40 pounds to serve.

If each serving has 5/16 pounds of the ham, then we need to divide this with the total pounds available, and that would give the total number of servings

So, there are 43.28 possible serving. However, we need to round this to the integer because we cannot serve a uncomplete plate.

Therefore, she can provide 43 complete servings with 5/16 pounds of ham.

since proposition states that a number is greater than 25, if is true then the number must actually be greater than 25.

this implies that all possible options, except 24, can be accepted
