Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:   2 & 3/4 cups

================================================

Explanation:

Use long division to divide 11 over 4. See the attached image below.

You should find that 11/4 = 2 remainder 3

The denominator 4 goes into 11 exactly 2 times with 3 left over

4*2 = 8 which is less than 11, and 11-8 = 3 is the remainder.

-------------

Alternatively,

$\frac{11}{4} = \frac{8+3}{4}$

$\frac{11}{4} = \frac{8}{4}+\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{11}{4} = 2+\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{11}{4} = 2\frac{3}{4}$

Which is the mixed number 2 & 3/4
