Respuesta :

The true statement is Casey picked  2 times the weight of fruit that Karen picked.

What is the true statement?

The first step is to convert the pounds to ounces

1 pound = 16 ounces

  • Weight of the strawberries picked = 16 x 6 = 96 ounces
  • Weight of the raspberries picked = 2 x 16 = 32 ounces
  • Weight of the blueberries picked = 48 ounces

Weight of fruits picked by Karen and Jude : 48 + 32 = 80 ounces

Ratio of weight of fruit Casey picked to that of Karen = 96 / 48 = 2

  • Strawberries needed to make 6 berry pies = 6 x 12 = 72 oz
  • Blueberries needed to make 6 berry pies = 6 x 8 = 46 oz
  • Raspberries needed to make 6 berry pies = 8 x 6 = 28 oz

Here are the options:
