Answer 1

With 6.75 cups of yogurt , we can make 4 bowls of fruit dip.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have ,Themba has 6.75 cups of yoguri and needs to make 5 bowls of fruit dip. Each bowl  uses 1.5 cups of yogurt  .

With 1.5 cups of yogurt:

With help of 1.5 cups of yogurt one bowl of fruit dip is made. Now we are left with (6.75 - 1.5 = 5.25) cups of yogurt. Number of bowls of fruit dip = 1.

With another 1.5 cups of yogurt:

With help of 1.5 cups of yogurt one bowl of fruit dip is made. Now we are left with (5.25 - 1.5 = 3.75) cups of yogurt. Number of bowls of fruit dip = 2.

With another 1.5 cups of yogurt:

With help of 1.5 cups of yogurt one bowl of fruit dip is made. Now we are left with (3.75 - 1.5 = 2.25) cups of yogurt. Number of bowls of fruit dip = 3.

With another 1.5 cups of yogurt:

With help of 1.5 cups of yogurt one bowl of fruit dip is made. Now we are left with (2.25 - 1.5 = 0.75) cups of yogurt. Number of bowls of fruit dip = 4.

Now, Another bowl of fruit dip couldn't be made because we have only 0.75 cups of yogurt ! So, with 6.75 cups of yogurt , we can make 4 bowls of fruit dip.
