b be the weight of an unpeeled banana (in ounces), and
p be the weight of its peel; so b - p is the weight of a peeled banana (the edible part). We know that p = (1/8)*b = b/8, and b = (b - p) + 7/8 = b - p + 7/8. Thus, b - b + p = 7/8, p = 7/8, b/8 = 7/8, b = 7. Therefore, the whole banana weighs 7 ounces; its peel weighs 7/8 ounces; and the peeled banana (the edible part) weighs 6 1/8 ounces. |
