Answer:
1,536 lb or 696.718 kg
verification:
4 p = 128 lb
48 p = ?
48 ÷ 4 = 12
128 × 4 = 1,536 lb
48 p = 1,536 lb
explanation:
If 4 people make 128 lb of garbage in one week then 48 people would make 1,536 lb of garbage in one week because the difference between 4 and 48 is 12 (48 ÷ 4 = 12) so if you multiply 128 lb by 12 you get 1,536 lb of garbage ( 128 × 12 = 1,536 lb).
