Answer:
The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.
Step-by-step:
In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:
2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
3: 3,6,9,12
4: 4,8,12
The LCM between these three denominators is 12.
4x3=12
2x6=12
3x4=12
You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:
3/4 becomes 9/12
1/2 becomes 6/12
1/3 becomes 4/12
We now add all the fractions together:
9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12
We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:
12x1=12 (7 remaining)
This is written as 1 7/12.
Hope this helps! :)

CloutAnswers</h3>
1) Work out what 1/5 of 12 is
To do this, we divide 12 by 5
12/5 = 2.4
2) Multiply 2.4 by 15
2.4 x 15 = 36
<em>If you don't like decimals, you can also do it this way...
</em>
This can be rewritten as 15 x 1/5 x 12
Multiplications alone can be performed in any order
1) Work out what 1/5 of 15 is
1/5 of 15
15/5 = 3
2) 3 multiplied by 12
3 x 12 = 36
Answer: The team's win-loss record that year is 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
During the 2017 Major League Baseball season the Cleveland Indians played 162 games.
Let x = the number of games that the
Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season.
This means that the number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season would be x + 42.
Total number of games played = sum of games won + sum of games lost. This is expressed as
162 = x + 42 + x
2x + 42 = 162
2x = 162-42 = 120
x = 120/2 = 60
Number of games that the Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60
The number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60 + 42 = 102
The team's win-loss record that year
would be wins/loses
= 102/60 = 1.7
