Carry out this task

Calculation and observed tool result

Stock = 3 × 7 + 2 = 23 g; floor(23 ÷ 7) = 3 bakes

Recorded quantity: 23 g.

What the result means

Twenty-three grams support three complete seven-gram uses.

A mistake to avoid

Treating each packet as one gram would undercount the ingredient.
