Work Step by Step

1. 1 variety pack = 3 packs of vegetable. $$20 \ variety \ packs \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ packs}{1 \ variety \ pack} = 60 \ vegetable \ packs$$ $$4.667 \ variety \ packs \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ packs}{1 \ variety \ pack} = 14 \ vegetable \ packs$$ $$0.25 \ variety \ pack \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ packs}{1 \ variety \ pack} = 0.75 \ vegetable \ pack$$ 2. $$30 \ beef \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{3 \ beef \ packs} = 24 \ variety \ packs$$ $$3 \ beef \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{3 \ beef \ packs} = 1 \ variety \ pack$$ $$10 \ beef \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{3 \ beef \ packs} = 3.333 \ variety \ packs$$ 3. $$30 \ chicken \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{6 \ chicken \ packs} \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ pack}{1 \ variety \ pack}= 15 \ vegetable \ packs$$ $$2 \ chicken \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{6 \ chicken \ packs} \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ pack}{1 \ variety \ pack}= 1 \ vegetable \ pack$$ $$25 \ beef \ packs \times \frac{1 \ variety \ pack}{3 \ beef \ packs} \times \frac{3 \ vegetable \ pack}{1 \ variety \ pack}= 25 \ vegetable \ packs$$
