16. Suppose Eva has 12 3/4 pounds of flour. The day's baking will require triple that amount.

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$

In order to find the answer, we have to convert the mixed number and then multiply by three, since how Eva needs triple the amount for today's baking.

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$
$12\frac{3}{4} =4\times12=48+3=51=\frac{51}{4}$
$3=\frac{3}{1}$
$\frac{51}{4} \times\frac{3}{1}$
$51\times3=153$
$4\times1=4$
$=\frac{153}{4}$

<u>Convert the improper fraction back into a mixed number:</u>

$\frac{153}{4}$
$\frac{153}{4} =153\div4=38\frac{1}{4}$
$=38\frac{1}{4}$

Which means Eva needs "38 1/4 pounds of flour" or option D for today's baking.
