Question

Audrey uses 5/8 cup of Fruit in each smoothie she makes 6 smoothies to share with her friends how many cups of fruit does she use

Answer 1

To find the amount of cups of fruit used you must multiply the number of smoothies (6) by the amount of fruit need for each smoothie (5/8)
6 x 5/8 = 30/8
30/8 can be simplified to 15/4.
This is still an improper fraction, because the numerator is higher than the denominator. To fix this, you divide 15 by 4, which equals 3 3/4 cups
