Question

Megan spent $9.85 on ingredients to make one pan of cereal bar and has a length of 24 inches and a width of 16 inches. Megan needs to cut individual cereal bars from the pan. Each cereal bar should be the same size and shape and should represent a reasonable serving. Estimate an appropriate length and width for each cereal bar and explain your assumptions. Based on your estimate determine the amount each cereal nar will cost Megan to make.

Answer 1

Answer:

96 bars = 10cent each (dime/pence etc) 10.2604166667 each

Step-by-step explanation:

if the cereal bars are accounted for 24inch x 4inch and 4inch lengths seem appropriate length, Then we can account for 1inch x 16 inch widths being 1'' wide each. 6 x 16 = 96 and 96/388 = 4 being the length.

Extended: Area of pan 24 x 16 = 240+148= area of 388in^2

96 bars costing ($9.85) 985/96
