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
