The lunch lady has 6 pounds of lasagna left over. If she makes 1/2-pound servings, how many servings of lasagna can she serve with the amount left over?

Answer: 12 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lunch lady makes equal servings of 1/2 pound each and she had 6 pounds total it would be written like this: 6:1/2

but you can't divide by a fraction so you multiply by the opposite reciprocal like this 6*2/1 or just 6*2

which gives you your answer of 12
