Answer 1

To determine which people ate more than 1.2 ounces of pretzels, we need to calculate the weight of pretzels each person ate based on the number of servings and the weight of one serving (0.9 ounces).

1. Kate ate 1.9 servings of pretzels: \[ 1.9 \text{ servings} \times 0.9 \text{ ounces/serving} = 1.71 \text{ ounces} \]

2. Paul ate 1.3 servings of pretzels: \[ 1.3 \text{ servings} \times 0.9 \text{ ounces/serving} = 1.17 \text{ ounces} \]

3. Ian ate 1 serving of pretzels: \[ 1 \text{ serving} \times 0.9 \text{ ounces/serving} = 0.9 \text{ ounces} \]

4. Aidan ate 0.7 servings of pretzels: \[ 0.7 \text{ servings} \times 0.9 \text{ ounces/serving} = 0.63 \text{ ounces} \]

5. Ava ate 1.4 servings of pretzels: \[ 1.4 \text{ servings} \times 0.9 \text{ ounces/serving} = 1.26 \text{ ounces} \]

Now, we can summarize the results:

• Kate: 1.71 ounces (more than 1.2 ounces)
• Paul: 1.17 ounces (not more than 1.2 ounces)
• Ian: 0.9 ounces (not more than 1.2 ounces)
• Aidan: 0.63 ounces (not more than 1.2 ounces)
• Ava: 1.26 ounces (more than 1.2 ounces)

The people who ate more than 1.2 ounces of pretzels are:

• Kate
• Ava
