Question

Please answer :( Delano is baking cookies. He needs 2/3 cup of flour for each batch of cookies. If each batch represents 1/4 of the total number of cookies he wants to bring to class, how many cups of flour does he need for all the cookies he wants to make? Enter your answer as a whole number or improper fraction.

Answer 1

Answer:

8/3 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

how many cups of flour does he need for all the cookies he wants to make can be represented by the variable x:

2/3=(1/4)*x

(1/4)*x=2/3

x=(2/3)/(1/4)

x=(2/3)*(4/1)

x=8/3

Thus, Delano needs 8/3 cups of flour to bake all his cookies
