Answer: 1 3/4 cups of apples in each batch

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Writing out the equation to represent if 7 cups of apples make 4 batches One batch is as a result of how many cups of apples

LET x be number of cups of apples to make each batch

7 cups of apples = 4 Batches

x cups of apples = 1 Batch

STEP 2 Solving by cross multiplication

1 batch x 7 cups of apples = 4 batches X x cups of apples

x cups of apples=1 batch x 7 cups of apples / 4batches

x = 7 / 4 = 1 3/4

number of cups of apples to make each batch= 1 3/4
