Answer:

The number of cups of strawberries to be used is 11 2/5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know how many cups of strawberries to be used given that the recipe was tripled.

From the question, we are told that the recipe required 3 4/5 cups of strawberries.

Now, by tripling the recipe, it means we will be tripling the individual cups too.

So the number of cups of strawberries to be used will be ;

3 4/5 * 3

3 4/5 as improper fraction is 19/5

so we have 19/5 * 3 = 57/5 = 11 2/5

How do I subtract decimals from whole numbers?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Just use long subtraction by expanding the decimal places of the whole number. This is done by adding a point, and enough zeros to it to match the number of decimal digits in the other number (digits after the decimal point).

12345678

i.e: 5 - 2.48374827, 2.48374827 has 8 decimal digits, so add 8 zeros after the point.

=

1 1 1 1 1 1 1

5.00000000

7 + 3 = <u>1</u>0, 7 + 2 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 8 + 1 + <u>1</u>= <u>1</u>0, 5 + 4 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 2 + 7 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 3 + 6 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 1 + 8 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 5 + 4 + <u>1</u> = <u>1</u>0, 2 + 2 + <u>1</u> = <u>5</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u> </u>5.00000000

This is basically borrowing a group of 10s which are the same as 1s in the next decimal place up.

For each digit except the first to the right, let 10 subtract that number from it and minus 1 since the 1 is carried over.
