Chad buys peanut in 2-pound bags. He repackages them into bags that hold 5/6 pound of peanuts. How many 2-pound bags of peanuts should chad buy so he can fill the 5/6 pund bags without having any peanuts left over.

First, let's find out how many 5/6 pound bags he can fill with on 2 pound bag.

2 divided by 5/6

2 x 6/5

2.4

He can fill 2.4 bags with one 2 bag.

Now we just need to multiply 2.4 by a number that will make it a whole number. You can use the guess and check method starting with 2 to figure your answer out, but 2.4 x 5 = 12 which is a whole number.

This means that Chad needs to buy 5 of the 2 pound bags to fill 12 of the 5/6 pound bags, and he will not have peanuts leftover
