Answer:

B. [tex] \frac{x}{5} = 8.5 [/tex]; [tex] x = 42.5 ounces [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of salsa in container = x

Number of bowl the salsa is divided into = 5

Amount contained by each bowl = 8.5 ounces of salsa

Therefore:

[tex] \frac{x}{5} = 8.5 [/tex] ---› equation

Solve for x

Multiply both sides by 5

[tex] \frac{x}{5}*5 = 8.5*5 [/tex]

[tex] x = 42.5 [/tex]
