How many cans of spaghetti sauce will be needed for 140 pounds noodles the are 104 oz?
This question can't be answered with the information given. Here's why:
* We need a serving size: We need to know how much spaghetti sauce is used per serving of noodles.
* We need the size of the sauce cans: We need to know how many ounces (or some other unit) are in each can of sauce.
Here's how to approach the problem if you had more information:
1. Calculate servings: Divide the total weight of noodles (140 pounds) by the weight of noodles per serving.
2. Determine sauce needed per serving: Figure out how much sauce is needed for each serving of noodles.
3. Calculate total sauce needed: Multiply the number of servings by the sauce needed per serving.
4. Determine number of cans: Divide the total amount of sauce needed by the number of ounces (or other unit) in each can.
Example:
Let's say:
* You need 2 ounces of sauce per 4-ounce serving of noodles.
* Cans of sauce are 15 ounces each.
1. Servings: 140 pounds of noodles is equal to 2240 ounces (140 pounds * 16 ounces/pound). Assuming a 4-ounce serving, you have 560 servings (2240 ounces / 4 ounces/serving).
2. Sauce per serving: 2 ounces
3. Total sauce: 1120 ounces (560 servings * 2 ounces/serving)
4. Number of cans: 74.67 cans (1120 ounces / 15 ounces/can)
You would need about 75 cans of sauce.
