| Berry | Amount needed for 1 pie (ounces) |
|-------|----------------------------------|
| Strawberry | 16 ounces |
| Blueberry | 12 ounces |
| Raspberry | 8 ounces |
First, let's convert all the berry amounts to ounces so we can compare and see how many pies can be made with the berries they picked.
1 pound is equal to 16 ounces.
Casey picked 6 pounds of strawberries:
6 pounds * 16 ounces/pound = 96 ounces of strawberries
Karen picked 48 ounces of blueberries
48 ounces of blueberries
Jude picked 2 pounds of raspberries
2 pounds * 16 ounces/pound = 32 ounces of raspberries
Now, let's see how many pies can be made with the berries they picked:
Casey's strawberries:
96 ounces / 16 ounces = 6 pies
Karen's blueberries:
48 ounces / 12 ounces = 4 pies
Jude's raspberries:
32 ounces / 8 ounces = 4 pies
In total, they can make 6 + 4 + 4 = 14 pies with the berries they picked.
Casey picked 6 pounds of strawberries. Karen picked 48 ounces of blueberries. Jude picked 2 pounds of raspberries. They are going to make berry pies. The table shows the amount of berries needed for 1 pie.
