To determine the weight of the chicken, we need to compare it to the weights of the beef and turkey that Roger bought. Let's assume that the beef weighs x pounds and the turkey weighs y pounds.
Since the chicken weighs more than the beef, we have the inequality:
chicken weight > beef weight
And since the chicken weighs less than the turkey, we have the inequality:
chicken weight < turkey weight
Combining these two inequalities, we get:
beef weight < chicken weight < turkey weight
Therefore, the weight of the chicken is between the weight of the beef and the weight of the turkey.
However, without specific information on the weights of the beef and turkey, we cannot determine an exact amount for the weight of the chicken.
Roger discovers that he needs to buy some chicken as well. He buys an amount of
chicken that weighs more than the beef he bought and less than the turkey he
bought. Give an amount in pounds that the chicken could weigh, rounded to the
nearest hundredth of a pound.

2.75-3.3
If the beef weighs 2.75 pounds and the turkey weighs 3.3 pounds, then the chicken could weigh any amount between 2.75 and 3.3 pounds. Rounded to the nearest hundredth of a pound, the possible weight of the chicken would be between 2.75 and 3.3 pounds.
