1. **State the problem:** Ms. Joseph has 2 pounds of tomatoes and wants to put 2 pounds in each bowl. We need to find out how many bowls she will use. 2. **Write the division equation:** To find the number of bowls, divide the total pounds of tomatoes by the pounds per bowl. $$\text{Number of bowls} = \frac{\text{Total pounds}}{\text{Pounds per bowl}}$$ 3. **Substitute the values:** $$\frac{2}{2}$$ 4. **Simplify the division:** $$\frac{\cancel{2}}{\cancel{2}} = 1$$ 5. **Interpret the result:** Ms. Joseph will use 1 bowl to hold all 2 pounds of tomatoes if she puts 2 pounds in each bowl. **Final answer:** $$\boxed{1}$$ bowl will be used.
