Question

John wants to make cookies. To make cookies, he need 2 over 3 of a cup of flour per batch of cookies. If John has 4 cups of flour then how many batch of cookies can John make?

Answer 1

$\dfrac{2}{3} \text { cups = } 1 \text { batch}$

----------------------------------------------
Find 1 cup :
----------------------------------------------

$1 \text { cup = } 1 \div \dfrac{2}{3} \text { batch}$

$1 \text { cup = } 1 \times \dfrac{3}{2} \text { batch}$

$1 \text { cup = } \dfrac{3}{2} \text { batch}$

----------------------------------------------
Find 4 cups :
----------------------------------------------
$4 \text { cups = } \dfrac{3}{2} \times 4 \text { batch}$

$4 \text { cups = } \6 \text { batches}$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: John can make 6 batches with 4 cups of flour.
