Answer 1

The area of the barn quilt is 3 sq.ft.

The amount of sugar needed to make 1/2 of a batch of cookies is 1/5 of a cup.

Number of boys are practicing hitting the ball = 4

Number of bags of lemons used by Rachel on Tuesday = 1$\frac{3}{4}$

1. A painted barn blanket needed to be 1 1/3 feet by 2 1/4 feet in size.

Area of the barn quilt = 1 1/3*2 1/4

                                  = 4/3*9/4

                                  = 3 sq. ft.

2. The recipe for Mrs. Smith's oatmeal cookies asks for 2/5 cups of sugar.

Sugar needed for making 1/2 of a batch of cookies = 1/2*2/5

                                                                                 = 1/5 of a cup

3. Six boys are practicing baseball throwing, catching, and hitting in the park. Two thirds of those six youngsters are practicing hitting.

Number of boys practicing hitting the ball = 6*2/3 = 4

4. At the park's lemonade kiosk, Rachel works. She used 1 and 2/5 bags of lemons on Monday. She used 1 and 1/4 times as many lemons on Tuesday as she did on Monday.

Number of bags of lemon used on Tuesday = 7/5*5/4

                                                                     = 7/4

                                                                     = 1 and 3/4 bags
