Question

Darius uses 6 2/3 cup of bread cubes to make a batch of stuffing for his family. How many cups of bread cubes will he need to make four batches of stuffing for a family reunion? *

Answer 1

Answer:

Darius needs $26\frac{2}{3}$ cups of bread cubes to make four batches of stuffing for a family reunion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

bread cubes to make a batch of stuffing  =   6 2/3 cup

To Find:

Number of cups of bread cubes needed to make four batches of stuffing for a family reunion = ?

Solution:

According to the question, to make one batch of stuffing Darius needs $6\frac{2}{3}$ cups of bread cubes

So if he wants to make four batched, then the number of cups of bread cubes  will be four times  as needed for making one batch

Then

Number of cups of bread cubes needed to make four batches = 4 x  bread cubes needed to make a batch of stuffing

Number of cups of bread cubes needed to make four batches

=  $4 \times 6\frac{2}{3}$

=>$4 \times \frac{18+2}{3}$

=> $4 \times \frac{20}{3}$

=>$\frac{80}{3}$

=>$26\frac{2}{3}$
