    5 full sandwich

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total roasted beef kelly has = 4 3/8 ounces

    lets convert it into improper fraction for ease of calculation

    Total roasted beef kelly has = (4*8 + 3) / 8 ounces = 35/8 ounces.

    weight of beef in 1 sandwich = 3/4 ounce

    let the no. of sanwich be x

    Total weight of beef in x sandwich = 3/4 * x ounce

    given that total weight of roasted beef is 35/8 ounces. so

    3/4 * x = 35/8

    => 3x = 35*4/8 = 35/2

    => x = 35/2*3 = 35/6

    => x = 5 5/6

    Thus, kelly can make 5 full sandwich and 5/6 part of full sandwich.

    If answer should be for full sandwich, then kelly can make 5 sandwich.
