One bag of rice that weights 4.5 pounds will have enough rice if a recipe calls for 60 ounces of rice. (1 pound = 16 ounces). true or false

Hello, JohannaSalmeron!

Set up proportions for the problem:

1 pound                 4.5 pounds
    x    

16 ounces                 x ounces

Cross multiply and solve for x.

x= 16 x 4.5
x= 72 ounces

So false, the recipe would call for 72 ounces of rice.

False

Hope this helps :)

If your asking how much altogether for 12 performance the answer will be 98,496.
