Question

The cook needs to make the dough for 9 small pizzas. Each pizza dough needs 1 1/3 cup of flour.   How much flour does the cook need to make all the pizza dough? Express your answer is simplest form.

Answer 1

If each pizza dough needs 1 $\frac{1}{3}$\\
We will need to multiply 9 x 1$\frac{1}{3}$\\

we will turn the fraction into a mixed fraction and we'll end up with $\frac{4}{3}$\\

We multiply 9 x $\frac{4}{3}$
and we end up with $\frac{36}{3} = 12$

The cook need 12 cups of flour.
