Answer:

26 sticks of butter; 6 and a half pounds (6lbs, 8 ounces)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know from the question that each stick of butter weighs 0.25 pounds or 4 ounces

(There are 16 ounces in a pound)

We also know that each stick of butter is equal to 8 tablespoons.

(There are also 16 tablespoons in a cup)

Therefore, you need 2 sticks of butter to make 1 cup of butter. The recipe calls for 13 cups of butter. 13•2 is equal to 26. So it takes 26 sticks of butter to make 13 cups of butter. And if each sticks weighs 0.25 pounds, we can work out 26•0.25 to get 6.5 pounds.

Hope it helped!
