Answer:

The total number of cups is 9 1/2 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the total cups of trail mix that Mr V can make.

From the question, we are told that he used 1/2 cups of peanuts, 2 1/4 cups of raisins and 2 times more sunflower seeds than raisins.

So basically, we need to find the number of cups of sunflower seeds used.

The information we have here is that he used 2 times more of raisins;

Thus, the number of cups of sunflower would be 2 * 2 1/4 = 2 * 9/4 = 9/2. But practically is 9/2 , two times more than 2 1/4? NO!

What we should do here is to add 9/2 to 2 1/4. In that case, the difference between the two will be 2 times the cups of raisins;

So 9/2 + 9/4 = (18 + 9)/4 = 27/4

So the total number of cups of trail mix that can be made will be;

1/2 + 27/4 + 9/4 = (2 + 27 + 9)/4 = 38/4 = 19/2 = 9 1/2 cups
