Question

Fredrick and Kate have 17 1/3 cups of flour. They want to make loaves of banana bread for a bake sale. Fredrick has a recipe for banana bread that calls for 1 5/8 cups of flour. Kate has a recipe that calls for 1 3/4 cups of flour. Select all the statements that are true about the recipes.

Answer 1

Answer:

Will Fredericks recipe make 10 loaves?

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Fredick and Kate have flour  $=17\frac{1}{3}$   cups

And Fredrik has a recipe where he calls for $1\frac{5}{8}$  cups of flour while Kate calls for $1\frac{3}{4}$ cups of floor.

So first we add the total cups of floor that they have

i.e. $17+\frac{1}{3} = \frac{52}{3}$

Similarly cups of flour in the recipe of Fredrick = $1+\frac{5}{8}= \frac{13}{8}$

Therefore, number of loaves that Fedrick can make is

$=\frac{\frac{52}{3}}{\frac{13}{8}}$

$=\frac{52}{3 }\times \frac{8}{13}$

$=\frac{32}{3}$

= 10 .667

Therefore, with Fedrick's recipe, he can make 10 numbers of loaves.
