Answer:

15 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Capacity of mixer = 681 kg

Pounds per bag of cement = 100 pounds

Number of bags mixer can hold =?

Converting the capacity of mixer to pounds :

1kg = 2.205 pounds

681 kg = (681 * 2.205) pounds = 1501.605 pounds

Number of 100 pound bag of cement :

Capacity in pounds / 100 pounds

1501.605 / 100

= 15.016

= 15 bags of 100 pound cement
