Question

Cameron is making pumpkin bread. The recipe calls for 4 3/4 cups of flour. She has 2 2/3. How much more flour does she need

Answer 1

Answer:

2 1/12 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

To get how much more flour Cameron needs, simply subtract how much flour she currently has (2 2/3) from the amount the recipe calls for (4 3/4).

4 3/4 - 2 2/3

You can make these into improper fractions to allow for easier subtraction.

19/4 - 8/3

In order to subtract them you must find a common denominator.

3 x 19/ 3 x 4 - 4 x 8/ 4 x 3 (Sorry for how weird this step looks)

57/12 - 32/12 = 25/12 or 2 1/12 cups of flour

If you could mark me "brainliest" as well, that would be greatly appreciated! Hope this helped!
