Angie bought 3 lbs. of coffee at the store today. Each lb. of coffee will brew about 40 cups of coffee. Angie drinks 3 cups of coffee every day. How many days will this coffee last her? Let's be accurate as possible.
A pound of coffee makes 40 cups of coffee, so 3 lbs. coffee * 40 cups of coffee per lb. = 120 cups of coffee. Angie drinks 3 cups of coffee a day, so she has enough coffee to last her 120 cups of coffee / 3 cups of coffee per day = 40 days.
The answer: 40.
