Omar can make 14 whole dumplings. You change 2 3/4 cups to an improper fraction (multiply the denominator and the numerator) and you get 11/4. Since you need 3/16 cups for One dumpling you have to find the greatest common denominator which is 16. You multiply by 4 by 11 to get the numerator and end up with 44/16. Since you need 3/16 for 1 whole dumpling you divide 44 by 3 and get 14.6 repeating. You cannot have a fraction of a dumpling so you round down and get the answer 14.
