Achef uses 3 3/4 pounds of semolina flour and 1 5/8 pound whole wheat flour for each batch of pasta she makes. one week she uses a total of 86 pounds of flour. write an equation to solve for b, the number of batches of pasta the chef makes during the week.

16 batches is the answer.

Amount of semolina flour used for 1 batch of pasta = pounds

Amount of wheat flour used for 1 batch of pasta = pounds

Total amount of flour used =

A total of 86 pounds of flour is used in a week to make 'b' batches

b=

b = 16

Hence, a total of 16 batches are made in a week.
