Answer

Find out the how many individual bags will she need for all of the jelly beans.

To proof

Let us assume that the number of  individual bags be x .

As given

[tex]Emily\ is\ dividing\ 15\ pounds\ of\ jelly\ beans\ into\ \frac{3}{4}lb\ bags.[/tex]

Than the equation becomes

[tex]\frac{x\times3}{4} = 15[/tex]

Solving the above

[tex]x = \frac{4\times 15}{3}[/tex]

x = 20

Therefore the number of bags are 20 .

Option (D) is correct .

Hence proved
