    Patel used 0.125 lb bags

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that:

    Patel bought 2 lb bag of Trail Mix

    He then poured 1/2 pound of trail mix into a bowl

    1/2 * 2 = 1

    i. e he poured 1 lb bag of the trail mix into a bowl

    Then he divide the remaining amount into bags in which each bag had 2 oz of trial mix.

    Now; we knew that after he poured 1 lb bag of the trail mix into a bowl; there will be 1 lb bag remaining

    So, he divide this remaining 1 lb bags into bags in which each bags contains 2 oz of the trail mix

    So; what we need to find out is that, how many oz makes one lb

    from the the conversion tables

    16 oz = 1 lb

    and it was said that each bag contain 2 oz

    that implies that:

    if; 16 oz = 1 lb

    Then: 2 oz = x lb

    16 oz * x lb = 2 oz * 1 lb

    x lb = (2 oz * 1 lb) / 16 oz

    x lb = 0.125 lb

    Thus; Patel used 0.125 lb bags
