well since it is out of five, and there is 2 whole numbers, 2 times 5 would equal 10 , but you still have 1/5 left so you would do 10 plus 1 which would equal 11. He would need to use 11 cups.

"<span>2/3 of the baked chicken was left over. Michela ate 1/4 of the leftover chicken. How much of the whole chicken did Michela eat?"...
This can solved by multiplying the fraction by each other:
2/3*1/4
2*1=2
3*4=12
=2/12 or 1/6.
She 1/6 of the whole chicken.
Hope this helps.
