Lizzy: It was time for Kelly to harvest her carrots that she had planted in three different beds. In the first bed she pulled out 55 carrots. In the second bed she pulled out 101 carrots and in the third bed she pulled out 78 carrots. She found that 6 carrots weighed one pound. How many pounds of carrots did Kelly harvest?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
She pulled out 55 + 101 + 78 = 234. 6 carrots weigh one pound so 234 / 6 = 39 pounds of carrots. Final answer: 39.
