dave catches 345kg of whitebait.he sells them to Mr Salmon who divides them into 2kg and 500g packs.IfMr Salmon uses the same number of 2kg as 500g packets,then how many packets did he use altogether?

Since he makes the same number of packs we combine the weight of the packs into one for now and divide the total weight by the pack weight.
345/2.5 = 138
Now we just times the answer by two to separate the sizes of packs again.
138*2 = 276
