Answer:
0.428571429
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Susan's present age be x
Now, after 7 years ( her age will become 7 +x then) she'll be 2 as old she was 3 years ago.
Her age 3 years ago must be x-3
Now according to question,
twice Her age 3 years ago = her age after 7 years
now,
2(x-3) = 7+x
2x-6 = 7+x
2x-x =7+6
x = 13
x = 13
Therefore, her age presenr age is 13 years.
Flour: 2 3/4 cups = 11/4
11/4 * 2 = 22/4 = 5 2/4 cups
Sugar: 1 1/2 cups = 3/2
3/2 = 6/4 = 1 2/4 cups
1 2/4 * 2 = 3 cups
So it *should* be 8 1/2 cups.
