Can I please have help? A group of hikers buy 8 bags of trail mix. Each bag of Trail Mix contains 3 1/2 cups of Trail Mix. The trail mix is shared evenly among 12 hikers. How many cups of Trail Mix will each hiker receive? Each hiker will recieve cups of trail mix.

29/6 (or cups)

Step-by-step explanation:

How much each hiker will receive can be represented by x:

8*=12x

lets change 3 1/2 into an improper fraction

=(3*2)/2+1/2=6/2+1/2=7/2

8*=12x

(8/1)*(7/2)=12x

56/2=12x

28=12x

12x=58

x=58/12

x=(29*2)/(6*2)

x=29/6

if written as an improper fraction, it is

thus, each hiker receives an equal share of 29/6 or cups of trail mix
