Answer:
72 bowls with 12 cups of cream
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I want to point out that the information, “3 pots of soup” is useless. So disregard that.
1/6 cups of cream for every bowl. That means, the assistant can prepare 6 bowls with one cup of cream.
1/6–bowl 1
1/6–bowl 2
1/6–bowl 3
1/6–bowl 4
1/6–bowl 5
1/6–bowl 6
At this point, 6 bowls are prepared. Add up all the cream that was used to make these 6 bowls.
1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6 = 6/6
Since 6/6=1, 1 whole cup of cream makes 6 bowls. That means 12 whole cups will make 12 x 6 = 72 bowls.
Hope this helps!
