Question

1. A recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of flour, 3/4 cup of white sugar, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar. The recipe makes 6 servings.

Answer 1

1 1/2 divided by 6 is 1/4, so 1/4 of a cup of flour for each serving.

12 is the common denominator between 3/4 and 1/3,so 9/12 and 4/12,add them and you get 13/12,take 12 away from the top number and you get 1 1/12, so           1 1/12 is answer for 2

remember,1 serving is 1/4 of a cu of flour, and 9 is only 3 more than 6,so you just add in 3/4 to the flour, and that yould make it 2 1/4 cups of flour.


i hope this helps
