This equation is equal to 5*4 so it equals 20
"Alaina’s sugar cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4
cups of flour per batch. If she wants to make 2/3
a batch of cookies, how much flour should she use?"
1 1/2 Cups, if she wants to make less than the original recipe, she would need less flour, you have to divide.
Answer:
Okay, here's the method I'm going to use.
If you drive north 6 miles, and then drive east 19 miles, you are technically making a triangle.
19 miles

6 milesl

You are just missing the last side of the triangle: the straight line stretching from across your starting point to the ending point. You can find this by using the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 19^2 = c^2
36 + 361 = c
397 = c
= 19.924859
Rounded to the nearest tenth, your answer is
19.9 miles
Try this option:
1 meter=1000 mm; 1 hour=60 min. From another side: 1 mm=0.001 m. and 1 min=1/60 h.
Using this rule:
620 mm/h=0.06*620 m/h=37.2 meters per hour.
answer: 0.06
1/3 wins and 2/3 losses
given 2 and 5 = 2/6 = 1/3
1, 3, 4, and 6 = 4/6 = 2/3
