Karen has 1/2 cup of sugar. She is baking cookies and needs 1 1/3 cups for a recipe. How much more sugar does she need If she wa
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

3 1/2 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by figuring out how much sugar Karen needs in total.

She needs (1+1/3) cups for her original recipe. To triple that, we need (1+1/3) 3 times. We can calculate this by multiplying it by 3.

(1+1/3) * 3 = 3 + 1 = 4

Karen needs 4 cups in total. She has 1/2 cup. The difference is how much more she needs. Therefore, she needs 4 - 1/2 = 3 1/2 cups

Lynn has a box of crayons.
Scrat [10]

Answer:

<em>There are 72 crayons in the box</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Fractions</u>

To solve this problem we'll manage numbers as fractions to keep the precision up to the end of it.

Lynn has a box of crayons. It's given 4/9 of the crayons are blue. The remaining crayons are:

1-\frac{4}{9}=\frac{5}{9}

From that portion, 65% are red, or equivalently, 35% are yellow.

We write 35% as a fraction:

\displaystyle 35\%=\frac{35}{100}=\frac{7}{20}

Thus, the portion of yellow crayons is:

\displaystyle \frac{7}{20}\cdot \frac{5}{9}=\frac{7}{36}

This fraction of x crayons is equal to 14, thus:

\displaystyle x=\frac{14}{\frac{7}{36}}=14\cdot\frac{36}{7}

x = 72

There are 72 crayons in the box

Mary Ann needs 3/7 cup of sugar to bake a cake she has 3/5 cup does she have enough to bake the cake yes or no
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Mary Ann does have enough sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 is greater than 3/7 which means that she does have enough sugar. This is because the denominator 5 is smaller than the denominator 7, and since they have the same numerator, the fraction with the smaller denominator is greater.
