Question

A recipe calls for 3 1/2 cups of sugar. If you want to make only 1/3 of the recipe, how much sugar should you use?

Answer 1

Answer: 1 1/6 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

First let’s convert 3 1/2 into an improper fraction: 7/2

Then we multiply 7/2 by 1/3: 7/2*1/3=7/6

Then finally we convert 7/6 into a mixed number, so your answer will be 1 1/6
