Part A

Question

The table shows data for orders of cheese. Multiply each number of pounds of cheese in the table below by its frequency.

Drag the tiles to complete the table. The first one is done as an example. Each tile may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Part B

Find the total number of pounds of cheese ordered.

11 pounds
13 pounds
15 pounds
17 pounds

Answer 1

Let's start by completing Part A of your question. We need to multiply the pounds of cheese by their frequency and fill in the multiplication column.

The data for orders of cheese is as follows:

• 1 / 4 pounds with frequency 4:

  • Multiplication: \( 1/4 \times 4 = 1 \)

• 3 / 4 pounds with frequency 8:

  • Multiplication: \( 3/4 \times 8 = 6 \)

• 1 1/4 pounds with frequency 4:

  • Multiplication: \( 1.25 \times 4 = 5 \)

• 1 1/2 pounds with frequency 2:

  • Multiplication: \( 1.5 \times 2 = 3 \)

Now we can summarize the completed table:

| Pounds | Frequency | Multiplication | |----------|-----------|----------------| | 1/4 | 4 | 1 | | 3/4 | 8 | 6 | | 1 1/4 | 4 | 5 | | 1 1/2 | 2 | 3 |

Now for Part B, we need to find the total number of pounds of cheese ordered. We can do this by summing the products from the multiplication column:

Total = \( 1 + 6 + 5 + 3 = 15 \)

Therefore, the total number of pounds of cheese ordered is 15 pounds.

So, the answer for Part B is:

15 pounds.
