Peanut Butter and Jelly
As I ran down to the freezer to get another loaf of bread, I started thinking about the number of sandwiches I could make with the individual ingredients. A loaf of bread contains eighteen slices, though we do not like to have the heels (the ends) for our sandwiches so we always feed those slices to the birds. The 16-ounce jars of peanut butter will make 12 sandwiches, and the 48-ounce jars of jelly will make 60 sandwiches.
(We like a little less jelly than peanut butter so the sandwiches aren't too "oozie"... but we always manage to end up with jelly on their clothes anyway!)
If we were to start with a full loaf of bread and new jars of peanut butter and jelly, how many sandwiches could we make before emptying a bread bag and jars of jelly and peanut butter at the same time?

You'll be able to make 8 sandwiches before you run out bread
a.m you could make at least 10 sandwiches.
A.G- Before we empty a bag of bread and jars of jelly and peanut butter, we can have at least 9 sandwiches. The way I got 9 sandwiches is by it said that you can make 12 sandwiches with 48-ounces of peanut butter but also you have 18 slices of bread in one loaf of bread so it takes 2 slices of bread to make a sandwiches, so I would divide 18 by 2 and then you get 9 sandwiches.

E.T.-You said you take the 2 heels of the bread loaf feed to the birds that will leave 16 slices of bread divided by 2 equals 8 sandwiches.Then you take a 16 oz. of jar of jelly divided by 8 and equals 2.02 oz. per sandwich that will empty the jar of jelly. Then you take a 60 oz jar of peanut butter and divide that by 8 and put 7.5 oz on each sandwich and that will empty the jar of peanut butter, That will result all the ingredients will be gone at the same time.
All of the ingredients will be gone at the same time. You take 2 heels of loaf bread to the birds and what sis left is 16 slices. Then you take 16 oz jar of peanut butter and divide that by 8 and put 7.5 oz on each sandwich and the peanut butter will be gone. So all of the ingredients will be gone at the same time.
M.H.
