Elsa's pumpkin weighs pound. Her pumpkin is 2/4 * 1/4 pound heavier than Carson's pumpkin. Elsa thinks that Carson's pumpkin must weigh 3/4 pound. How can Elsa correct her mistake?

The mistake you are referring to is not clear in the statement.

It is a statement which only describe the weighs of Elsa's and Carson's pumpkins.

Elsa's pumpkin weighs 7/8 Pounds, while Carson's pumpkin weights 3/4 Pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Elsa's pumpkin is 2/4 * 1/4 pound heavier than Carson's pumpkin, and Elsa thinks that Carson's pumpkin must weigh 3/4 pound.

Simplifying the weigh of her own pumpkin,

Elsa: 2/4 * 1/4 = 2/16 = 1/8 Pounds

Carson: 3/4 Pounds

Elsa's weigh should then be

3/4 + 1/8 = 7/8 Pounds.

step-by-step explanation:

one day the were 5 ducks, and their king told them to multiply their kingdom. so each went their own seperate way and met 4 other ducks on their journey.

when the ducks returned to their kingdom, it was discovered that there were 5 groups of 5 ducks. when the kind counted the number of ducks in total (including the ones he sent out earlier) he counted 25.

therefore 5 times 5 is 25.

the end. : )
