Answers

First, we need to find the total weight of the trail mix by adding the weight of nuts, raisins, and chocolate chips:

4 + 3 + 2 = 9 pounds

Next, we need to find how many bags of trail mix we can make with 1/3 pound each. We can do this by dividing the total weight by 1/3:

9 ÷ (1/3) = 27

Therefore, Diego can make 27 bags of trail mix. However, the answer choices only include multiples of 3, which makes sense since we're dividing by 1/3. So, we need to divide 27 by 3:

27 ÷ 3 = 9

So, Diego can make 9 bags of trail mix. Answer choice A is the correct answer.
