When you only want to make a fraction of a recipe, say like 1/2, you multiply that fraction by every measurement of an ingredient.

So, if a recipe calls for 2 cups of flour, you multiply the measurement of that ingredient by the fraction. In our case 1/2.

2 * 1/2 = 2/2 = 1

Now we need to only put 1 cup of flour.

Same difference with the question above. Raheim only wants 3/4 of the recipe. So, we multiply 3/4 by the measurement of every ingredient.

One of the ingredients is butter. In the original recipe, it is 2/3 of a cup.

Now we multiply 2/3 by 3/4.

2/3 * 3/4 = 6/12

Simplify the fraction.

6/12 = 1/2

So, Raheim should use 1/2 of a cup of butter.

125 divided by 32 equals what
andreyandreev [35.5K]
32 × 2 = 68
32 × 3 = 96
32 × 4 = 128

So far we can conclude that the answer to your question lies somewhere between the numbers 3 and 4. To narrow down the answer some more, multiply 32 by 3.5 (a midway point between 3 and 4).

32 × 3.5 = 112
The number 112 tells us that the decimal we are looking for is higher than 3.5. (Because we need to get to 125, not 112.) Let's try some decimals between 3.5 and 4.

32 × 3.7 = 118.4
32 × 3.8 = 121.6
32 × 3.9 = 124.8
32 × 4 = 128

As we narrow down our answer, we can see that the number we are looking for lies between 3.9 and 4 on the number line. Now we need to start testing some decimals between 3.9 and 4. 

32 × 3.905 = 124.96
Again, use the number five as a "midway" point to decide if you should use numbers that are higher or lower than 3.905. In this case, we need to use numbers higher than 3.905.

32 × 3.906 = 124.992
32 × 3.907 = 125.024

We are getting even closer to our number now that we know the decimal is somewhere between 3.906 and 3.907.

32 × 3.9065 = 125.008
With our midway point we can see that our number lies between 3.906 and 3.9065. Let's try a quarter point to see where our number lies from there.

32 × 3.90625 = 125
And BINGO! We have found the answer to the question. To be rephrased, our answer can be put like this:

\frac{125}{32} = 3.90625

 2) cancel similar terms
 3) add both fractions by cross product
 4) Rewrite the numerator and denominator.
