Question

what is the recipe cost for ground pork 2 lbs @2.99/lb making meatloaf yield 50 4oz portions??

Answer 1

First, convert total ounces of 50 4 oz portions. 50 portions x 4 oz = 200 ozs

Next, convert how many lbs are in 200 ozs: 1 lb = 16 ozs so 200 ozs / 16 ozs per lb = 12.5 lbs

Last, multiply 12.5 lbs x $2.99 per lb = $37.38.
