liters of turkey chili. If Margot's recipe is for 1 liter of turkey chili, how many pounds of turkey will she need to make 4 times the recipe?

6.721 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply by the conversion of liter to find what 1 liter

= 2.20 pounds

You have said 23 pounds so we could also divide 23/2.20 = 10.45 liters

This would make the recipe smaller as she used 10.45 liters.

We find 1 liter by finding 10% =  1.045 and then can see 1 liter + 0.045 is the divider and shows 4.5% more.

before multiplying it x 4 we can subtract 0.045 from 4 = 3.055 and then multiply back to 4 liter = 1 x 3.055 = 3.055 liters  =  and not 12.21 liters and not 3.55 liters.

We can convert 3.055 back to pounds and shows

conversion of 1 liter = 2.20  3.055 x 2.20 = 6.721 pounds which is also around 3kg

3 lb of turkey

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have not answered my question above, I will assume the problem reads like this:

"Margot used  1/2 pounds of turkey to make  2 /3  liters of turkey chili. If Margot's recipe is for 1 liter of turkey chili, how many pounds of turkey will she need to make 4 times the recipe? "

The recipe calls for 1/2 lb turkey to make 2/3 liter chili.

We have a rate of 1/2 lb turkey for 2/3 liter chili.

We first find the unit rate of turkey to chili.

(1/2 lb)/(2/3 liter) = (1/2 lb) * (3/(2 liter)) = 3/4 lb/liter

The unit rate is 3/4 lb of turkey per 1 liter of chili.

Her recipe makes 1 liter. She wants to make 4 times that amount. She needs to use 4 times the amount of turkey given in the unit rate.

4 * 3/4 lb = 3 lb

3 lb of turkey

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
