Answer:
Mr. Conrad will need 14 cups of cherries to make 8 pies
Explanation:
Given;
A pie recipe = 1 3/4 cups of cherries = ⁷/₄ cups of cherries
8 pies will require how many cups of cherries ?

x = 2 x 7 cups of cherries
x = 14 cups of cherries
Therefore, Mr. Conrad will need 14 cups of cherries to make 8 pies
