Question

How many 2/3 cups can go into 9 cups

Answer 1

Hello there! :D

Today we're gonna learn some math, whoopie!

Alright, so we want to know how many 2/3 cups can go into 9 cups!

Firstly, I want to turn 9 cups into a fraction with the denominator of 3.

Let me do it all fancy for you:

$9=\frac{x}{3}$

We know we want the denominator to be three, now we just need to do the opposite action (multiplication) to the other side to find what "x" is!

$9*3= \frac{x}{3}*3$

If you have trouble understanding that step, let me know!

$x=27$

Enter that into the fraction and we have:

$\frac{27}{3}$

Notice that 27 is not an even number!

Now, we can the numerator of 27/3s and divide it by the numerator of 2/3s.

$27/2=13.5$

This is not a whole answer, but the question is asking how many 2/3 cups can go into nine cups. Half of a 2/3 cup does not equal a 2/3 cup, so the answer would be 13 cups.

I hope this helps you can you have a wonderful day,
