Question

If you have 8 cups of berries and it takes 2/3 cup to make a dessert how many desserts can you make?

Answer 1

To find this we want to divide 8 cups by 2/3 cup per dessert.

To divide by a fraction, multiply the forst number by the reciprocal of the second.
(8/1)*(3/2)= 24/2
24/2=12

Final answer: 12 desserts
