what she has to do is divide her amount of sunflower seeds into the number of packages that she needs: so 1/2 pounds into 8:
[tex] \frac{1}{2}:8= \frac{1}{2*8}= \frac{1}{15} [/tex]
-if we divide a fraction, we can multiply the denominator by the number we want to divide it by.
This is the correct answer, each packet will weight 1/15 of a pound, that is one ounce
