Erome is cooking dinner. he needs 8 ounces of broccoli for each person. part a: jerome is not sure how many people will come to dinner. write an expression with a variable that represents the amount of broccoli jerome needs for dinner. identify what the variable represents. part b: if jerome has 32 ounces of broccoli, how many people can he feed? create an equation and show all work to solve it.

Part A: the expression is written as b=8p because 8 ounces are needed per person. b represents the number of ounces of broccoli that are necessary, and p represents the number of people. 
Part B: We can use the expression we made in the beginning to solve this. b would be equal to 32 because that is the number of ounces of broccoli. Then we simply solve for p in 32=8p. When you divide both sides by 8, the answer is p=4. So he can feed 4 people.
Hope this helps!

The answer to that question your asking is 64
