Answer:
11 (if you wanna know how many cups [which i mean by 2/3] it is 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, to start, a cook has 11 7/8 cups of flour, right? Well, if you subtract 11 7/8 by 2/3 you get 11 5/24. As an estimate, you would get just plain 11 because there is three numbers when you estimate, 11, 11 1/2, or 12. 11 5/24 is more closer to 11 (because 1/2 would be 11 12/24, and 12 would be 11 13/24 or more until 12)

Answer:
(3,1) because x is 3 and y is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
x+2y=5
3x+5y=14
Multiply first equation by 3:
3x+6y=15
3x+5y=14
Subtract 3x:
1y=1
Therefore, y = 1
Plug it back into 1st equation:
x+2(1)=5
x+2=5
Therefore, x = 3
Judging from your answers, it looks like (3,1) because x is 3 and y is 1.
I hope this helped!
