31 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets see the total number of pounds he mixed with nuts, peanuts, and chocolate chips.

There is a total of 10 and 1/3 pounds in total. To see how many 1/3rd bag he can have, we have to divide the total by 1/3. So we have:

So, there can be 31 bags

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
