Today's Question - This never happened at the "A&P". Alan was trying to save money by buying at a farmers market. He was preparing a dinner for his boss, Richie. He saw a plastic bag of mozzarella balls. (Richie’s favorite.) To see if it was a bargain, Alan asked how much did the bag weigh. He was told that it weighed 32 lbs divided by half its actual weight. Can you help Alan figure how much the bag weighs?

Answer - Even though Alan and his boss Richie couldn't figure it out, we're sure you did (unless you too were budding your head against the wall). The weight of the unmarked mozzarella has to be a factor of the number 32. Given the other conditions we discover that the weight is 8 pounds.Doesn't match Missing info Like question
