Question

10 1/2 cups of flour are needed to make 3 loaves of bread. How many cups are needed for 12?

Answer 1

Answer:

42 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

12 is 4 times more than 3 (3 × 4 = 12), so we know that we need 4 times 10 1/2 (equal to 10.5) cups of flour.

All we need to do for this is do 10.5 × 4 = x and solve for x.

10.5 × 4 = 42 cups of flour
