Question

Angeline made a dish with 5 1/3 cups of pasta. One serving is 0.2 cups. How many servings of pasta were in the dish Angeline made?

Answer 1

Answer:

26 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We could turn both of these numbers into decimals, but I find fractions easier.

so 5 1/3 as an improper fraction is 16/3

0.2 as a fraction is 2/10 or 1/5

so now we have the equation 16/3 ÷ 1/5 or 16/3 x 5/1

this give me 80/3, then when simplified gives me 26 2/3.
