If Scarlet made 2 1/2 pounds of trail mix. If she puts 5/6 of a pound into each bag, how many bags can Scarlet fill?

Question

Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

Answer 1

Scarlet can fill 3 bags! It's a simple division problem: 2 1/2 pounds, divided by 5/6 pounds that goes into each bag.

Answer 2

I have a question, not a answer.

Doug made 1 1/2 pounds of trail mix. If he puts 1/6 of a pound into each bag, how many bags can Doug fill?

Is this division, or multiplication? Also, what is the answer?
I am a student.
