Question

A recipe for bread uses 5 3/4 cups of white flour and 3 1/3 cups of wheat flour. How many more cups of white flour than wheat flour are used in the recipe? Write an equation and complete the bar diagram to solve.

Answer 1

The equation is just 5 3/4 times 3 1/3. You make the denominators the same by multiplying them by each other. It will be 5 3/12 times 3 1/12. Now you times these two together. You can do this part yourself because it will be confusing on here. I hope i helped atleast a little.
