Question

Michelle has a recipe that asks for 2 1/2 cups of vegetable oil. She wants to use 2/3 that amount of oil use applesauce to replace the rest. How much will she use

Answer 1

This is a multiplication problem.

2 1/2 * 2/3 = 5/2 * 2/3 = 10/6

She will use 10/6 or 1 2/3 cups of vegetable oil (or applesauce idk).

Hope this helps, let me know if it's wrong!
